Griffins quell Knights' uprising
From coaches' reports
The International varsity girls volleyball team had to put down an attempted insurrection by the Cambridge Lady Knights to post its third victory in as many games last Thursday at its home gym.
Things started off as they normally have for the Griffin girls, who won the first game 25-16. There were many long rallies, and good plays made on both sides, but the team from International tended to prevail.The Knights delivered a shock in the second game however, winning 25-19. This marked the first time that the Griffin girls varsity team had lost a set this season, and seemed to set the stage for an upset. The Knights also came from behind to beat Co-operative earlier in the season, and no doubt had thoughts of doing so again.
But their plans for an upset came to naught as the Griffins reasserted the supremacy in the third set, winning 15-6, thereby consigning Cambridge, with a record of 1-2, to third place in the league.
