BEAVERS PUNCH TICKET TO OVAC FINAL

EAST LIVERPOOL OH-

In the words of Herm Edwards “You Play to Win the Game”.  The game was an OVAC Volleyball Semi Final game between Oak Glen and Beaver Local.  Previous to Tuesday both teams had won a match against each other, so coming in everyone knew that it was going to be a battle of friendly and equal rivals.  The Beavers came into the night riding an 8 match win streak and continued their hot streak into the first set winning 25-22.  The Bears behind a young talented team came back and won the second set 18-25.  Both teams continued back and forth with Beaver Local winning the third set 25-19, and Oak Glen winning the fourth set 15-25.  The fifth set began and the Beavers coming out and getting a quick 3 point lead that Oak Glen was never able to counter enough to get any closer.  Beaver Local won 15-10 and secured their spot in the championship round.

For Beaver Local Briar Wolski and Peyton Roberts had 11 kills each, while Jocelyn Pomeroy had 10.  Aleia Evanko and Emma Roberts were successful in feeding the front row with 17 and 12 assists respectively.  Four different Beaver Local players had double digit digs with Chloe Reed leading the charge at 13.

Beaver Local now moves on to play rival #1 seed East Liverpool in the OVAC 4A Volleyball Championship at Union Local on Saturday at 1:00pm
