Another winless week for Medical Lake volleyball

 

Last updated 9/29/2016 at 12:59pm



Medical Lake volleyball suffered through a winless week in Northeast A League play dropping 3-0 decisions to Deer Park and Chewelah.

The Cardinals (0-6 NEA, 0-7 overall) lost at home to the Stags 11-25, 16-25, 17-25, who improved to 4-2 in both league and overall play.

“This was the best team effort I have seen all season,” Medical Lake head coach Todd Harr said. “The girls fought hard for every point and although we were not able to win any games, the girls’ attitude and effort was amazing.

Kristina Michener led her team with three kills and five blocks. “Kristina Michener played one of the best matches we have had from an individual all season,” Harr said.

The effort from Tuesday did not carry over to Thursday’s meeting with Chewelah (2-4, 3-4), Harr said as he watched his team drop sets by scores of 16-25, 15-25, 10-25.

“Emily McCormick played the best match she had all season and was willing to play different positions throughout the three games to help wherever we needed her,” Harr said. McCormick’s 10 digs were tops for her team.

Harr, the first-year coach, said that while the progress may be slow, he’s gauging success for now through things other than wins and losses.

“Our success will not be based off of wins and losses this year,” he said. “We are looking at creating wins through taking care of the little things and trying to have those things translate into battling each and every night.”

Medical Lake was at Lakeside (6-0 NEA, 6-0 overall) Sept. 27 and Freeman (5-1, 5-1), tonight, Sept. 29 at 6:30 p.m.
