Griffins slip by vengeful Knights, 2-1
The International girls varsity volleyball team nailed down first place by defeating Cambridge Saturday morning in the International gym by the closest of margins.
Cambridge was trying to complete a remarkable comeback by winning its last three games of the year after losing its first three -- and the Lady Knights darn near did so.
After losing the first set in fairly docile fashion, 25-27, Cambridge roared back to take the second 25-20. The third set was a hammer-and-tongs affair that the Griffins finally won 15-12.
The victory gives International clear title to first place in the league, and puts Cambridge in third place. In the palyaoos International will play Christian Learning, and Cambridge will play Cooperative.
