The Huskie Volleyball team had their work cut out for them on Thursday night against Thayer Central. Â The Thayer Central Titans were preseason ranked #3 in C-2 with lots of the talent from last year returning for them this year. That did not stop the Huskies from putting up a fight.
The team dropped the first two sets to the Titans 25-12 then 25-17. Â However, the third set, the Huskies came out with some fire. Â Being scrappy on digs and tough at the net, the Huskies won set three 25-21.
The win brought some momentum, but the Titans were just too much to handle Thursday as they finished out the game by winning set four 25-17.
The Huskies also competed at the Kearney Catholic Tournament on Saturday in Kearney. Â The team did not get any rest from taking on top ranked teams as they faced Ord in their first match up. Â Ord is preseason ranked #4 in C-2 and defeated the Huskies in two sets 25-17/25-13.
The Huskies went on to beat Gibbon 25-8/29-31/25-15. They finished the day by beating Sutton 16-25/25-15/25-17 and taking 5th at the Tournament.
There will be no rest in the Huskie schedule as they travel to Fillmore Central on Tuesday to take on the C-1 preseason #7 Panthers. Â Game times are 5:30, 6:30 and 7:30pm. Â We’ll be live blogging from the game Tuesday night so make sure to follow here.
