17U at Challenge Cup
2010-02-15
The 15U team travelled this weekend to Georgetown to compete in the championship division of the Challenge Cup. The first game of the round robin was played against Niagara Rapids Black which the team lost in two sets 19-25 and 13-25. The 15U team next faced the Hurricane Blue losing in three sets 11-25, 25-20 and 8-15. In the last game of the round robin, the team faced Oakville Thunder in which the girls took the game in two sets winning 26-24 and 25-15.
The 15U team ended up third in their pool which pitted them against MAC in the cross-over match. The girls played amazing and initially took the game in three exciting sets 17-25, 25-21 and 20-18. However, MAC placed a grievance against a Chill substitution and in an heartbreaking decision by the officials the girls had to come back to play the last set starting at 9-11. Sadly the girls ended up losing this rematch 10-15. This loss placed them again against the Oakville Thunders to play for 9th or 10th. The girls played hard but lost in two sets 13-25 and 23-25.
The team should be proud of how they handled themselves both on and off the court after the reversal of their win against MAC. I am sure they will come back stronger in the Bugarski Cup. Thanks to our coaches Mr. MacKenzie and Mrs. Guillet for all of their dedication and support.
