We started out doing our job, by scoring the first point with loud and encouraging cheer. We never fell behind in the first set. We had control of the game the entire time. It was a great experience to watch. We ended up winning 25-13 the first set. Now for them having three D1 commits and us beating them that bad is pretty impressive.
Usually, after you kill a team by that much when they are a good team, the opposing team comes back with a bang and gives a fight. Cedar Falls did that and made us fight for the win. We pulled through winning 26-24. That game dealt with amazing amount of trust between teammates. I have never been in a situation where I can't trust my teammates on the court with me. I am so thankful for that.
Cedar Falls did not give any more of a challenge as they did the first or second set. It was like taking candy from a baby. We ended up winning 25-18 for the final. We felt extremely accomplished and over whelmed, because they were ranked number one and we were ranked number four, so for us to beat them in three was pretty impressive. Made all the other team realize how good of a team we are and what we can do if we put our mind set to it.
Last weekend on homecoming day we had a tournament and Cedar Falls beat us twice. They didn't just take the win they actually crushed us like a grape. We looked like we didn't understand how to play. We had one day to prepare for them and we worked immensely hard as a team and ended with a great result.
Our crowd had a enormously amount of help to let us pull this win off. They cheer to let us know they have our backs when we are down. They get us rowdy and into the game. They are the people that make us want it so bad. We by far have the best student section out of all the Cedar Rapids Community School district.
