It is over half way through the season and no one has been able to stop the Moline "Mighty" Maroons volleyball team. Keeping it perfect with a 23-0 record, the maroons won their home invitational this past weekend at Wharton Fieldhouse. Taking down Geneseo, Morton, Freeport, and Dunlap. Winning a championship plaque wasn't enough for three of the players on this team. Juniors Lauren Arnold and Marquisha Harris earned all tournament team along with senior Sarah Fetter claiming the tournament MVP title. Losing the first game in the final match Moline was challenged to push to three games for a 26-24, 15-13 victory over Dunlap in the last two games. With only 3 weeks left before postseason starts, these girls are committed to take on anyone in their way to success. They're also preparing for a big week with games against Normal Community then Quincy on senior night. Along with travleing to Bradley Bourbonnais for a high level tournament that weekend. With the great support they have behind them from family, friends, and the Goon Squad accomplishing these goals shouldn't be a problem.
Wish these girls luck as they continue their outstanding season!
GO MOLINE MAROONS!!! you girls have a great record so far! Were you guys this good last year? I know you know you lost to quincy, but is that still affecting your gameplay for future games?
ReplyDeleteThanks Erika! We are about the same last year when it comes to record, but a lot of girls have matured over the past year and have better leadership. Losing to Quincy hasn't really affected us with our play. We're looking forward to playing them again in the Regional final tomorrow!
