On Thursday night, the Zeeland Boys’ Volleyball team defeated the Reeths-Puffer Rockets and the Covenant Christian Chargers in a home tri-match. Although the boys fell behind in both matches, the team showed how they played together as a team and made a comeback in both matches. 

When asked about the Puffer match, Head Coach, Chris Linderman expressed, “We started out really good in both sets, but we kind of fell apart in the middle of the sets. Thankfully, the team got back together towards the end and they played well.” In the match versus the Chargers, the boys won the first set by a score of 25-17 and the second set was a close 25-18 win. In response to this match, Linderman stated, “We were a little down in the first set, our ball control wasn’t the greatest, but in the second set, we got a lot better. We took advantage of things we saw on the other side of the court, which carried us over in to the second set. The team played with a lot of energy in the end.” 

Sr. Elliot Bell, a middle on the team, stated, “Our goal was to win the games by keeping the ball off the ground.”
