On Tuesday, September 2, RBS played Clay Co., 2 out of 3, RBS won. Clay County has only had a volleyball program for two years, but the coach can see a big improvement in their level of play this year as compared to last year.  They have a lot of potential.  Fortunately, Red Boiling's offense managed to score 33 earned points, so they pulled out a win. The Cumulative stats were: Crystal Allison: 8 kills, 11 aces, 2 digs; Jaclyn Jordan: 11 kills, 1 ace, 5 digs, 1 block; Jenna Lanford: 2 kills, 1 ace, 4 digs; Bethany Patch: 4 kills; Ciara Green: 1 kill, 2 assists, 1 ace, 5 digs; Megan Patch: 1 kill, 18 assists, 2 aces, 4 digs, 1 block; and Sherena Swoner: 5 digs.

Again on Tuesday, September 2, RBS played Jackson Co., 2 out of 3,  RBS won. Jackson County is a tough team.  They have an outside hitter who is unstoppable.  Crystal pulled out all the stops on this one, or they might have lost.  With a hitting percent of 53  percent, she made a huge difference.  The cumulative stats were: Crystal Allison: 8 kills, 2 blocks; Jaclyn Jordan: 7 kills, 2 aces, 6 blocks; Jenna Lanford: 2 aces, 7 digs; Bethany Patch: 1 kill, 5 aces, 1 block; Ciara Green: 1 ace, 3 digs, 2 blocks; Megan Patch: 1 kill, 7 assists, 5 digs, 7 blocks; Sherena Swoner: 1 assis, 5 digs; Game 1: Score 25 to 15, RBS

 On Thursday, September 4, RBS played Monterey, 2 out of 3,  RBS won.

They were a little shaky in this one.  Their passing wasn't as good as it has been, and, with the exception of Jaclyn, nobody hit very much.  Their only real strength in this one was the serving, with a total of 19 aces. The Cumulative stats were: Crystal Allison: 3 kills, 11 aces, 2 digs, 1 assist; Jaclyn Jordan: 11 kills, 1 ace, 5 digs, 1 block; Jenna Lanford: 2 kills, 1 ace, 4 digs; Bethany Patch: 4 kills

Ciara Green: 1 kill, 2 assists, 1 ace, 5 digs; Megan Patch: 1 kill, 18 assists, 2 aces, 4 digs, 1 block; and Sherena Swoner: 2 aces, 5 kills;

 Again on Thursday, September 04, RBS played Gordonsville, 2 out of 3,  Gordonsville won the cumulative stats were: Crystal Allison: 4 kills, 3 digs; Jaclyn Jordan: 11 kills, 3 aces, 3 digs, 6 blocks; Jenna Lanford: 3 kills, 4 digs

Bethany Patch: 1 kill, 1 block; Ciara Green: 1 kill, 1 assist, 1 ace, 7 digs; Megan Patch: 17 assists, 11 digs, 3 blocks and Sherena Swoner: 12 digs.

  It's kind of funny that Gordonsville was the only team to beat RBS in the regular season last year, and this year they have stopped their season-long winning streak.  Gordonsville certainly outplayed them.  Gordonsville made good hitting decisions and let nothing hit the ground.  It's a wakeup call for RBS.  The Bulldogs have had the mentality lately that they are simply going to win each time, and they have gotten a bit complacent.  That will change.  The coach has some plans for this coming week to help with the problems, and they will adjust as needed to be competitive in every game that they play.  Congratulations to Brian Leslie, Gordonsville's coach, and his team for a well-played game.  They were brilliant.  “We will do our best to get a different result next time though”, said the coach.
