Volleyball in the Lower Hudson Valley

We’ve got a battle … Westlake wins

October
31

9:10 p.m.: In a fantastic fourth game, Westlake was able to pull out a 25-23 win to win the match 3-1. The victory gives the Wildcats a fourth straight sectional title.

It didn’t come easy though. Croton-Harmon took leads of 22-19 and 23-22, but the Wildcats were able to win the match’s final three points to emerge victorious.

I’m not covering this game (Casey is on top of things), but I was in the vicinity, so I guess technically, I saw my first two matches of the year go more than three sets.

I guess that should be expected though, when it gets to this point of the season and only the top teams are left to battle things out. What a great night of volleyball.

Tomorrow should be exciting as well with the Class D (2 p.m.), Class AA (4 p.m.) and Class B (6 p.m.) championships all packed into one day at John Jay High School. Once again, if you have any leftover candy, don’t be shy…

8:55 p.m.: Westlake won game three and now holds a slim 16-15 lead in game four. The Wildcats are nine points away from a fourth straight Section 1 championship.

I just checked in on the Class C Championship between Westlake and Croton-Harmon and was surprised to see that the match is tied two games a piece.

This one is certainly going differently than the first times the teams played in which Westlake won easily, 3-0. It’s 13-12 in the third set. Keep it here for updates.
