Women's volleyball come up just short in five set marathon
Georgian pushed the Lords to the limit on Thursday but fell 3-2 in Oshawa.
The Georgian Grizziles women's volleyball team travelled to face the Durham Lords on Thursday night in Oshawa, ON.
The game was also a marathon battle. Georgian pushed the undefeated Lords to the edge but came up just short losing 3-2 (23-25, 25-7, 25-26, 25-19, 15-5).
There were many positives for the Grizzlies as they finally had their full roster active for the first time this semester. They were also the first team to take a set from the Lords since Oct. 28, a stretch of 11 games.
Kelsey Watson returned to the lineup, playing her first game since Dec. 4 and made an immediate impact. The Barrie, ON native scored a team-high 14 points (11 kills, 3 aces). Quinn McGregor (Lindsay) was strong again as well with 10 kills.
The Grizzlies currently sit in fourth place in the OCAA East Division standings with a 9-5 record and have some important upcoming games with the playoffs well within their sights.
Georgian will be back in action this coming Tuesday, Jan. 31 when they host the George Brown Huskies at the Georgian Athletic Centre beginning at 6 p.m.
