Melrose traveled to Winchester to meet the expansion Sachems. Two groups that don't fare well are dogs that chase cars and expansion volleyball teams. The match yesterday went as expected with the Lady Raiders winning 25-14, 25-3, and 25-12.
The walking wounded status? Alyssa DiRaffaele returned from her injured ankle, Kelly O'Neill saw limited time with a hand injury, and reportedly Allie Walsh goes on the disabled list with a shoulder injury. Athena Ziavras has improved and no longer needs crutches.
The team expresses heartfelt thanks to the loyal fans that travel home and away to see competitive games and less so. Don Norris and his wife Lori, Don LaSaffre, and George Lovett, all of whom have no relatives on the team cheered the girls on like they were their own.
The JV game went to 3 games. Melrose won. Melrose won set 1, lost set 2 and won set 3. The games saw rallies from both teams at times to bring the score close over and over again. The JV continue to make gains. Their aggressiveness at the net has definitely improved. Their serving exceeds most any JV team they have played. Their setting up plays and not just hitting it over has really progressed.

Can we make a perfect circle this time?___________________________
