VISITATION blazers 3, ST. PAUL CENTRAL minutemen 1
(25-15, 25-17, 25-27, 25-14)
I checked the websites today and thought this game started at 7:30 (MN scores). However the MSHSL site apparently had been changed to 6 pm. So when I showed up at 6:45 I was 45 minutes late, not 45 minutes early. As it was I was able to see a portion of game two and then the full games three and four.
Both teams were AAA foes in section 3 last year. This year Visitation moves down to AA, but they kept the scheduled game. SPC won last year in three. This year Visitation turned the tables in the Central gym. When I arrived game one had already fallen into the Visitation column. However it was 13 all when I walked in. By the time I had my chart ready to go Visitation was up 15-13. Visitation finished with a 10-4 run, 7 points of which came on SPC errors.
Visitation led early 8-5 with Peggy Dobihal's four service points. Central took a time out trailing 7-5. After the time Central went on a 5-2 run to tie the game at 9. A missed serve gave the ball back to Visitation. That started a 7-2 run for Visitation. Courtney Kranz led the charge with two
of her 4.5 blocks (that I witnessed). Visitation maintained that margin out to 21-18 when SPC burned their final time out. The Blazers were on the verge as Central was caught in the net. However a missed serve gave SPC new life. That proved to be the catalyst for an 8-3 run. Central closed to 23-22, but an overpass kill by Kranz put Visitation one point away. Central held on and Viz had a passing error on the next ball. That started a three point run due to Visitation errors and it was Central's turn to be up 25-24. Again it was Kranz preventing the loss with a kill. SPC's Megan Tate had a kill and then Ellen Senf put down an overpass kill to give Central a win.
Visitation put their foot down early in game four with leads of 8-2 after #33 (their libero) five service points. The fact was Central only had two first ball side outs of the nine service marks by Visitation. Visitation started off with three straight FBSO. Jessica Adducci had three kills for Visitation in this game.
