SK Volleyball with Season Opening L's

The Lady Pioneers travelled across the Licking River to take on neighboring county foe Campbell County in the opening regular season tri-match. Unfortunately for SK, the Pioneers were swept in all three matches by the home team Camels. The Freshman team was the only group that was even able to pull off a set win as the JV and Varsity teams lost both sets of their matches.

The JV team struggled to gain any momentum out of the gate as they gave up a point due to a technical miscue. The team posed little threat to the Camels in the first game. In the second game, the Pioneers did gain some traction and were serving for the win but the Camels came back to win the final set and match on cap points.

The varsity team ran into a buzz saw in the form of #4 Kennedy Berkley of Campbell County. The Camel outside hitter played a phenomenal match and almost single handedly took down the Lady Pioneers. I’m certainly no v-ball expert but the #4 Camel must have been involved in some fashion in 70% of the Camels points. SK actually led in the second set by a score of 13-12 but the Camels went on a roll behind Berkley’s serving to win by a final of 25-14.
