Win 3-1
The Rhinos played an incredible four sets against Loomis this afternoon on our home court. Varsity and JV were both away, so our Rhinos crashed the main court with energy and eagerness to win. The first set showcased the attention we have given to consistent serving. Co-captain Fa Taepaisitphongse ('21) and Julissa Mota ('22) led the team with service points. Susannah Brown ('22) and Julia Williams ('22) dug out some great passes from the back row. We took the set 25-11. The second set kept everyone on their toes. Kate Sacerdote ('22), Becca Weinstein ('21) and Merrill Eastman ('22) helped keep the team motivated with their careful passes. Co-captain Sadie Kargman ('22) ushered in new energy with some incredible serves and hustle around the court. We lost the set 25-23, and were impressed by Loomis's determination to save every ball. By the third set, the Rhinos were ready to take back the court. Nicole Balbuena ('22) and Angela Koranteng ('22) had wonderful passes from the back row. Tessa Graebner ('21) stood out as an impressive Middle, finding spots to hit that Loomis could not cover. Julissa Mota ('22) had 8 service points. We won the 3rd set 25-16. Fa Taepaisitphongse ('21) set the tone for the 4th set when she earned nine service points in a row. Lily Evans ('22) and Emma Bishop ('21) had some quick feet to save Fa's serves and the Rhinos called it a day, taking the 4th set 25-8. We are excited for this first win and look forward to playing Porters at home on Saturday.
