The Lady Barons battled hard against Huntington Beach, but ultimately suffered a loss against the Oilers.
Although both teams played hard, the Barons fell behind and eventually lost with an overall score of 0-3, with scores of 16-25, 14-25 and 12-25.
The girls played strong offense in all three sets, with several kills from outside hitter Erin Finley (‘17) and middle blocker Kennedy Hood (‘17), as well as with powerful serves from opposite hitter Amy Hinnant (‘17). However, they fell short with their multiple hitting errors which gave the Oilers the advantage.
“We started off strong and…tried our hardest, but in the end we weren’t ready to face the Oilers,” said Britney Tran (‘17).
The Barons are working hard to improve and are continuing to practice for their ongoing season every weekday.
“This loss is just a way for us to learn from our mistakes and improve for future games. We’re training even harder for the next game to make sure we come back as an even stronger team. Hopefully we’ll be able to make CIF playoffs and win.” Tran adds.
