Oct 17 Volleyball Tri-Match

Thursday, October 17 was a fun day for the Calvary Christian gir
ls Varsity volleyball team. The Eagles played both Muskegon Heights Lady Tigers and Rivertown Patriots in a tri-match taking place in our own home gym. Even after Tuesday’s painful loss to WMC in boys Varsity soccer, the volleyball team played hard and pulled out a double win Thursday.

First, Calvary played Muskegon Heights. The Eagles easily beat them 25-5, and then 25-8. Both teams played hard and did their best but Calvary proved to be the winner of that match. Calvary has also previously played Muskegon Heights earlier in the season and won then as well.

In between Calvary’s game against Muskegon Heights and their next game, the Lady Tigers played the Rivertown Patriots. After some time, the Patriots pulled ahead and won.

While Muskegon Heights and Rivertown were playing, the Eagles enjoyed their own little “Harvest party,” complete with caramel apples, doughnuts, cider, and Coach Denger’s famous protein balls.

After that, Calvary played the Patriots. This game proved to be a bit more difficult. However, Calvary pulled out and won the first half 25-19, and beat them again in the second half, 25-21. Calvary had never played this particular team before, but nevertheless managed yet another victory.

At the end of the day, Calvary Christian School emerged victorious after the tri-match. All the teams played their hardest and did the best they could, but the Eagles worked hard and pulled out a win against the Muskegon Heights Lady Tigers and the Rivertown Patriots. No matter what happens, it is not the winner of the game that matters, but who played with their heart.
