Box Score 2 Magnolia, Arkansas - Javelinas sweep day 2 of Mulerider Invitational
Â
In the first match of the day the Javelinas took on the Magicians of Lemoyne-Owens College. They successfully captured their second sweep of the season. The 2
nd set of the match went down to the wire and showed the Javelinas are still a force to be reckoned with even with their backs against the wall, pulling out the match in a 25-23 victory.
Â
Cambelle Brammer had another great match to start her career collecting nine kills in this match as well as leading the team with eight digs. This brings her total for the weekend up to 22 kills and with two more matches to go she has plenty of time to build to that. Head Coach
Tanya Allen-Gonzalez said " I love that this team has a ton of depth and that we are able to move people around and try multiple lineups," As
Tayae-Renae Garcia had eight digs as well in this and
Alexiah Thompson had three aces, this Javelinas team can attack from anyway on the court.
Â
"Overall I'm pleased with the way we are preforming. We are a pretty young team and we are looking for growth in these preseason matches, and I'm seeing that." Coach
Tanya Allen-Gonzalez added. This was the mindset heading into the match against tournament host Southern Arkansas.
Â
In the Second Match of the day the Javelinas had a slower start to their game then other matches but were able to overcome it and take the first two sets in grueling 25-22 and 25-23 scores. The third set of the match was where the Javelinas shined when they secured their third consecutive sweep of the weekend with a 25-14 win over Southern Arkansas.
