Coach Mike Krzyzewski said, "Basketball isn't about running plays; it's about making plays." Many plays shaped "got to have it" moments in 'available' video.
At 2:15:29, Duxbury serves 24-22 with double "match points."
First, Sabrina McArt supplies craft over power at the net.
Continuing the play, Sadie Smith makes the situational dig of the year, extending the match for Amelie Johnson to "rainbow" a kill over the Dragon defense.
Third, at 40:32 in the first set, Duxbury staged an early rally from a 7-2 deficit. Melrose leads 9-8. Adriana digs a tough serve, Sadie sets Alisa Dautovic, who delivers a kill off the block. "Stops make runs."
Fourth, at 47:30 Melrose exerts force with Dani DiGiorgio digging a near-certain point, allowing Sadie and Alisa to convert another lost point into a winner.
Fifth, set two, trailing 5-3 at 57:43, sport rewards extraordinary effort. Dani with another "dolphin dive" turns an ace into a Melrose point. Modern women's sport reveals skill and athleticism.
Sixth, set four, trailing 19-13 Melrose needs playmakers. At 2:04:19, Sabrina McArt and Amelie leverage timing, technique, and athleticism with a key block.
Seventh, trailing 23-21 at 2:14:36, Melrose works to avoid going to match point. Adriana with an excellent dig, Duxbury keeps the play alive, and Elise "hits through" and scores. The "will to hit" inhabits the hearts of competitors.
Many more plays showed the grit of both teams. Regrettably, the video ends at 7-8 of the fifth set.
