In the seesaw final, Madrid surged back from a 12-8 deficit and won 15-13 to capture the Section X Class C championship. MW Coach; Senior Captains Libero, Keianna Webb, and senior Mady VanGordan. Keianna was able to dig many of the powerful hits Canton put down, as she led the defensive effort. VanGordan had some great kills and led the offense with her hitting. Junior Evie Losey played a solid middle as she put down many of Canton’s hits. Two sophomores that were pulled up from JVs 5 games ago deserve honorable mention. Carlie Danussi played a middle and Chyeanna Brothers played a great passing game in the back row. Senior OH Raven Ordway and junior Hope Dykes also had big plays in the last two sets as well. Our record was only 6-10, but I feel we are peaking at the right time, and playing with a better team mentality. This is our third section 10 class C championship in a row.” For Canton: Elle White-9 kills, 13 digs, 12 points, 4 aces. Delia Gaurin- 30 kills, 3 blocks, 7 digs. Zoey Zebedee-28 assists, 6 points, 3 aces. Claire Polniak- 11 points 7 digs.
