The Guardian Angels Central Catholic Bluejays went 1-1 at the Arlington Triangular on Thursday, sweeping Oakland-Craig 2-0, but losing 2-0 to the host Eagles.
Arlington won set one 25-12, and set two 25-8.
The Bluejays downed the Knights 25-14 in sets one and two.
Maddie Knobbe put down 13 kills and had 11 digs while Ally Plagge notched 9 digs. Kali Stratman added 18 set assists.
GACC played well against Oakland-Craig, but really struggled against the Eagles for whatever reason.
The Bluejays (8-4) host Bishop Neumann (11-1) Tuesday night.
The Cavaliers topped Nebraska City and Arlington 2-0 on Saturday at the Schuyler Invitational.
This is going to be a really difficult match for the Bluejays, in my opinion.
GACC's young team is going to have to grow up in a hurry if they hope to compete with and beat Bishop Neumann.
The Cavaliers are the real deal, but if there's ever a team to win a big match, especially at home, it's the Bluejays.
GACC could very well lose this match 3-0, but the Bluejays can never be counted out.
GACC has too much pride and tradition to be counted out of any match.
The Bluejays are capable of winning anytime they take the floor, and these girls have to believe that.
GACC has to play to win, not play not to lose.
The Bluejays have to come out on fire and get off to a good start.
GACC has to take things one point at a time, and try and hold or a lead or at least remain within striking distance in every set.
The Bluejays are going to have to play their best match of the season to win, in my opinion.
It's going to take a monumental effort for GACC to upset Bishop Neumann.
We will find out what the Bluejays can do Tuesday night. GACC is going to have to play up to their potential for the result of the match to come out the way they want it to.
If the Bluejays play the way they did against Arlington, it's going to be extremely difficult for them to beat Neumann.
