"It was a rollercoaster of a night for our ball control and aggression on offense," Coach Kayli Hurley said. "We played some strong defense in set one, but lost our way in set two. Our focus moving forward is taking smart risks and being brave when things on the court feel difficult."

Last Thursday, the team hosted Adna, and lost in four sets, 18-25, 14-25, 25-22, and 16-25.
