On Tuesday night the Boiling Springs volleyball team celebrated their annual Pink Game, a night to honor cancer survivors and to raise money for cancer research, with a 3-0 victory over the visiting Spartanburg Vikings.
"The pink game has become an annual tradition that started many years ago with some players," said Bulldogs head coach Allyson Elliot. "Every year I ask our seniors if we're going to do it again and it's always answered with a definite yes. It's something that our school, parents, and community really get behind. The money raised by the Pink Game goes to the American Cancer Society." The Bulldogs took all of the support that comes with their annual Pink Game to the court with them on Tuesday night as they won their second match against Spartanburg this season. The first game saw the score go back and forth early as both teams were tied at 12-12 but the Bulldogs went on a 13-6 run to capture the first game 25-18. The second game was the most competitive game of the match as both teams battled throughout the game and both teams were tied at 24-24 before the Bulldogs captured the game 26-24. The Bulldogs were able to finish off the match with a 25-23 victory in game three to claim the victory. The Bulldogs were able to claim the victory 3-0 which is something that the Bulldogs had focused on doing going into the match on Tuesday night. "We haven't beaten anyone in three games this year as it usually takes us five games," said Coach Elliot. "Our goal tonight was to come in and play hard and consistent and see if we could take a team in three games. The region has been very competitive this year so we know the next week and a half we're going to have to play hard to try and secure a playoff spot." The Bulldogs were led on Tuesday night by Maddie Reed who had fifteen kills, Alex Fyfe who had eleven digs and Madison Gregory who had nineteen assists. Boiling Springs will return to the court on Thursday night as they travel to Hillcrest for another region matchup. Comments are closed.
