Melrose continued their undefeated regular season with a three set victory at Burlington, 25-5. 25-7, and 25-22.
The lopsided win afforded Coach Scott Celli the chance to give extra time to his reserves, who responded in kind.
Set one saw Burlington with a short-lived 4-3 lead, before Melrose ran off a twelve point run to put the game away with libero Jess Farr serving. At 16-5, Hannah Brickley finished with a nine point run. Melrose had a single errant serve in game one. Hannah led with five kills and Laura Irwin added three.
Set two saw more of the same, but fewer kills and a run of service aces by Laura and Jess. Hannah added four more notches to her belt and Laura had a pair of kills. Freshmen Jill Slabachesky and Alyssa DiRaffaele had a kill apiece. Melrose had a pair of service errors.
Coach Celli went with a young lineup in set three and still came away with a win. Hannah got a well-deserved rest for this game, with both frosh starting. Melrose led 14-6 but the Red Devils fought back to lead 18-15. The Lady Raiders fought back to tie at 18 and 19, before putting the game away behind another Farr service run. Annemarie Wiesen, Athena Ziavras, and Siena Mamayek each had a pair of kills.
Melrose returns for a homestand next week.
