WAYNESFIELD -GOSHEN-It was a sectional semifinal rematch at Waynesfield- Goshen high school on Tuesday night when the Tigers hosted the Bearcats. Spencerville was able to get the best of them in straight sets to pick up the victory to begin sectional play.
“ The girls played with a lot of intensity and heart,” said Spencerville head coach Keeley Layman. “Yesterday at practice we talked about being super talkative and going for everything and they all stepped up tonight.”
Spencerville came out and running in the opening set with some good attack as they were able to fight off Waynesfield – Goshen 25-20.
“Kait Keller and Lorelai Layman were getting the assists to our front row so our big hitters could get kills,” said Layman. “Briley Cook, Analese Hannah, Kelsey Lee, and Kendall Kill all read the court and put the ball where it needed to go tonight.”
The Bearcats seized control of the match in the second set as they controlled it from start to finish to go up two sets to none.
The visitors put a bow on the victory in the third set with a very impressive performance in the set to win in straight sets.
Spencerville advances to the sectional finals on Thursday when they face second seeded and second ranked in division four, New Bremen.
“New Bremen is going to be tough but we’re going to go in with positive attitudes and give our best on Thursday,” concluded Layman.
Spencerville 25 – 25 – 25
