MHS Girls Varsity Volleyball Defeats Cate

The MHS girls volleyball team travelled to Cate on Friday and came home with a victory.

Coming off the heels of heartbreaking loss to St. Bonaventure, the Sharks did their best to defeat a small but scrappy Cate team.

Senior captain, Gigi Hadid, served ace after ace and was a dominating hitter. Other leading hitters included Chelsea Bostwick and Logan Beitler.

Leading 25-12, 25-23, the Sharks needed to win only one more game to seal the deal. At the start of the third game, a crowd of Ram supporters showed up to rally behind their team.

The Sharks dropped two games 23-25 and 20-25. Before the fifth game, Coach Carlos Gray pulled aside his senior setter, Allison Hahn.

No doubt to make sure that she would help keep the team focused on a win. As the team gathered together for one last time before they took the court, parents looked out hoping not to have a repeat of the night before.

Junior libero, Devon Masterson, battled to help her team with dig after dig. Claire Murphy and Lara Kiefer stepped up their game and did their best to block the strong arms of the Rams.

Setter Allison Hahn also set up sophomore middle blocker, Kate Kiefer, for a kill or two. The Sharks defeated the Rams in the 5th game 15-13.

The girls will be on the road for both games this week. They will take on Grace Brethren on the 9th and Oak Park on the 11th. If you are in the area, drop by and cheer on the Sharks!
