“In the second game, we came out with a new intensity and were able to serve for points which kept us in the lead most of the game. Our service game led to more free balls, which we transitioned into points.”
Game three was more of the same, but the fourth game was a battle to the finish.
“CB East regained some of the momentum,” Ehlers said. “The match was close the entire way with us holding on to a two-point advantage to win the match.
