MEQ Day 1

H2 14 Cardinal continued their strong play this past weekend at the MEQ in St Louis. Playing in the American Division the team finished 28th overall, playing against really strong competition all three days.

The team started early on Friday morning against Performance Volleyball Club with a tough loss. Performance was a very strong team finishing the weekend second overall. But we bounced right back in the next match, easily defeating Rattlers 14-1 in two sets. In the final set the girls prevailed once again against a strong Michio 14-1 team, winning in three sets.

The team finished second in the pool, keeping them in the gold playoffs!

On Saturday, the team faced even tougher competition, losing to UVC out of Southern California and PVA out of Kansas City. They finished on a very high note however defeating a good Rockwood White team in three sets. The team, playing short handed on Sunday lost their final match to 33 Volleyball Club.

All in all, it was a great weekend for the girls marked with increasingly consistent play. Next Sunday, we play in a local tournament to help get ready for the Show Me Qualifier.
