Onekama Volleyball 2008

The Portagers had a great day at the Northport Invitational Saturday. The Portagers came away with the plaque as pool play champions with a 7-3 record, defeating tournament champion Northport in 2 straight games handing the Wildcats their only loses in the tournament. Playing the tournament short handed with only 7 girls, the Portagers played very hard before losing in the semi-finals in a tie breaker match to Bear lake 15-13, after having defeated the Lakers in 2 straight in pool play. " It was a very warm and muggy day in Northport and inside the gym was very hot.

The girls played extremely hard but we just ran out of gas at the end. I am so very proud of the girls as each and every one of them performed very well. When you are short handed it is very demanding to play back to back to back games with out a break (both physically and mentally) and our team did an outstanding job of working together and supporting each other. Because of that our entire tournament team of Paige, Chelsea, Tabitha, Stacey, Olivia, Erin, and Sherece were awarded the teams MVP of the tournament." ~Coach Keith Photos may be coming. ~Coach Keith
