Decatur volleyball had a long, hard fight against Snow Hill last night. JV pulled out the win 2 to 1, with freshmen Lila Gunther and Hayden Esworthy having exceptional games. Next up, Varsity came out strong winning the first game 25 to 22. After losing the next two nail biting games, they battled back to win the fourth game. As the whole gym sat on the edge of their seats, the Seahawks and Eagles traded points back and forth, with the Eagles just barely taking the win 15 to 12. It was a tough loss but what an amazing game for our Seahawks. The leaders of the game were Brooke Berquist with a perfect serving game and beautiful sets, Zoe Hinkle who defended the net and did an amazing job stepping up in the back row, and Ronin Brooks with some of the best coverage of the night. Great job, ladies. Next up, Parkside on Thursday.
