Melrose hosted Burlington without its All-State attacker Grace Seaman and emerged victorious 25-18, 25-12, and 25-16. The win boosts Melrose to 5-1 and Burlington drops to 3-3.
Burlington led early, 11-8 when Scott Celli took a time out. The break helped clear the fog. With the score tied at 11, this Emme Boyer attack off an out-of-system Alex Homan set helped launch a run leading to the first set win.
In the second set with the score knotted at ten, the Sabine Wenzel show began with a variety of tips, taps, and smashes as she dominated the second half of the stanza.
Trailing 14-15 in the third set, Melrose and Sofia Papatsoris got untracked with this sequence.
This started an 11-1 run with more Papatsoris attacks unleashed leading to the 25-16 final.
The match's only consistency was inconsistency. Burlington was undersized and undermanned and Melrose couldn't capitalize until the latter phases of each set.
MVB Notes: The goals remain the same - improve, compete, and win the last game. "Only children and fools judge things half done."
