IAC VOLLEYBALL: WAVERLY TOPS WATKINS GLEN FOR THIRD TIME THIS SEASON (24 PHOTOS) (2021-04-01)
Valley Sports ReportWAVERLY "" After splitting the first two sets, Waverly finished strong for a 3-1 win over Watkins Glen here Thursday night in IAC Large School volleyball action.
Waverly coach Charity Meyers said her team didn't display its usual zeal.
"I felt the girls were a bit too low with the energy tonight.
"I'm not sure if the sight of snow brought down the mood or what," said Meyers. "We definitely need to work on being able to make some changes and still keep the tempo up.
"Watkins Glen is always fun to play and they have such a great attitude," Meyers added. "We can't wait to see them again in the fall."
The Lady Wolverines, now 3-4 with all three wins coming against Watkins Glen, won the first set 25-17, but the Lady Senecas answered with a 25-20 win in the second set to even the match at 1-1. Waverly closed out the match with wins of 25-17 and 25-17.
Junior Aryan Peters had a monster night for Waverly with 19 service points, including seven aces, 16 setter assists, and five digs, and senior Sidney Tomasso had 16 points, including eight aces, three kills, one dig, and five digs.
Senior Emilee Little had eight points (four aces), a team-high nine kills, and three digs in the win, while senior Caitlyn Bakley had eight points (three aces), three kills, and three digs, junior Michaela Lauper had seven points (three aces) and 13 digs, 8th-grader Lillie Kirk registered eight kills and one block, junior Aubrey Ennis added four kills, and junior Sydney Nierstedt chipped in with two kills.
