Sept 24th La Serna Match

The WC girls showed they were fallible on this night. They lost in 4 games to La Serna. And it was heartbreaking for the team, mostly because they did not play their best. The passing was not the usual stellar passing they have become famous for, so consequently much of their offense was not run well or efficiently. To their credit, La Serna played well and did not let up. They also picked on our weakness at middle blocking and caused multiple hits to kareen off the blocks, unplayable from our side. If WC would have played their best it most likely would have gone 5 games, and perhaps they could have pulled out a win. But that didn't happen. Afterwards, Coach put a lot of blame not only on the passing, but on the captains. That really affected Erin. She played her heart out and felt she played to the best of her ability. She was not at all ashamed of her personal effort. But when Coach questioned it, it kind of crushed her. She kept asking, what more could I do? I did my very best! The team had the weekend off afterward, a much need rest and a time to reflect on not wanting to lose again. If there was a good time to lose, then perhaps this was it. Before heading into league play and eventually to playoffs, this is the time to get the kinks out, and figure out what needs to be done to get the girls to play to the best of their ability in every match. A team grows through adversity, and by God's grace, this may be the most adversity they face this season: the adversity of themselves.
