volleyball team comes up short
In a battle right down to the last points, the Castleton women’s volleyball team came really close to winning their recent home match against Lyndon State College. After losing the first two games to Lyndon with scores of 31-29 and 30-25, Castleton won the third game 30-21 and went into the fourth game with their confidence restored.
Near the end of the game the score was close, but Lyndon finally pulled out the 32-30 win. The large crowd in attendance cheered and supported their team until the bitter end.
Although Castleton was defeated, it was a close game thanks to the efforts given by the team, including Jamie Lemieux who had 23 kills, six aces and 12 solo blocks. Her teammate, Erika Tintle, scored 11 kills and four blocks.
The Women’s Volleyball team will travel to Maine to play Husson and Maine Maritime on Oct. 20 in the hopes of scoring another NAC win.
