Bishop Ireton roared out to an impressive 25-12 win in game 1 only to see the visiting Maryland School for the Deaf rally in games 2 and 3, pulling out the critical game five to upend the Cardinals in Alexandria Tuesday, 3 games to 2.
“We did many good things,” said Coach Kathy Gutmann. “Serving and passing were our strong points today, but it is the ‘little things’ that got us. Between the earthquake and the hurricane, we lost two scrimmages that would have helped us with those ‘little things’.”
After taking game 1, MSD won the following games 25-18, 25-16 before the Cardinals regrouped and dominated game 4 25-13. It was not to be for Ireton, however, as the visitors jumped to an 11-4 lead and cruised to a win in the 5th game, 15-5 to win the match.
“Laura Hart played particularly well for us and Ashley Cabrera was strong serving the ball for us.” commented Gutmann. The Cardinals (0-1, 0-0) open WCAC at St Mary’s Rykien Thursday afternoon.
