San Marcos battled Hart through five sets but came short in the end in a season-opening girls volleyball match on Friday. The scores were 23-25, 17-25, 25-14, 25-21, 15-8.
“We had some incredible rallies throughout the match and our girls left everything on the floor,” said first-year coach Tina Brown. “Jenna MacFarlane had a great all-around game with 15 kills and 11 digs.”
Middles Molly Kirkbride and Kristine Fimlaid each posted 6 kills and 4 blocks, while Dani Dusebout held her own, playing some solid defense and adding 6 kills, Brown noted.
Libero Delany Werner kept many rallies alive with her 16 digs.
“Although it was a tough loss, we had a great battle with a very good team,” said Brown.
