Frankfort: The Onekama Volleyball team
opened its season by splitting a pair of matches and dropping two in a
tournament at Frankfort. The Portagers
were shorthanded and spent the majority of the day with just six
players, only two of whom had previous varsity experience. They split
their first two matches against Frankfort (16-25), 25-22) and Northport
(11-25, 25-17) before losing to Mason County Eastern (11-25, 12-25) and
Traverse City Christian (21-25, 17-25). |
"I thought they really stepped up and did
pretty well," said Onekama Coach Sherri Slater. "We had that little
rough patch against MCE, but they didn't stop and hang their heads or
anything. They came back and I thought they played a real good
match against TC Christian." Becky
Cunningham led the Portagers with four aces and six kills, Sami
Tiefenthal had three aces and five kills and Hailey Kott served at 92
percent with an ace. |
