Tuesday's sports results

It wasn't a good day for Oak Harbor sports on Tuesday.

The Girl's Soccer team traveled to Arlington to face the 2-1 Eagles. The Eagles opened up their offense and two players scored two goals apiece to down the 'Cats 4-0. I don't have the JV results, so would someone help me out?

The Volleyball 'Cats went to to 2-1 Shorewood and took it all the way. OH started with a convincing 25-16 win in game one, and lost by only 2, 23-25 in game 2. The girls came back to take game 3 25-20, but let things get away in game 4, going down 17-25. In the final, 5th game, Shorewood showed poise and finished the match by winning 15-10. Even though the team lost, individual stats were helped by the 5-game match. Senior Kim Mowbray had 5 blocks and added 7 kills to her total, while setter Melany Cone tallied 5 service aces. In talking with Jen Jansen the next day, she couldn't really pin the loss on any one factor, but said hitting errors was the weak area for that match. She said the serving was great and the passing outstanding, but the team just didn't get the job done.

While I don't have game scores, the JV squad went 1-2 against Shorewood. They won the first, but couldn't keep the momentum up and lost the next two. The Freshman team was overpowered by Shorewood, losing all 3 games.

Next up for volleyball is a home match against Kamiak on Thursday, Sept 18th.
