The Logan View Raiders went 1-3 at the Louisville Invitational on Saturday, defeating Johnson County Central 2-0, but losing 2-0 to Seward, Weeping Water, and Omaha Brownell-Talbot.
The Bluejays topped the Raiders 25-5 in the first set, and 25-8 in the second set.
The Indians won set one 25-17, and took set two 25-22.
Logan View did a nice job beating the Thunderbirds, but probably would have liked to have done better in all their other matches.
The Raiders (2-15) host Clarkson/Leigh (7-6) Tuesday night.
The Patriots went 2-1 at the Hampton Tournament on Saturday, downing Burwell and Deshler 2-1, but losing 2-0 to the host Hawks.
I think Logan View has a chance to be competitive against Clarkson/Leigh if they play up to their potential.
The Patriots are a solid team, but they're still young.
The Raiders are a bit more seasoned and experienced, plus the match is at Logan View, so I think that makes a big difference in a match like this.
The Raiders are also the bigger school so it will be interesting to see if that factors into the match at all.
I think Logan View is capable of knocking off Clarkson/Leigh, but the Patriots are probably the more talented team.
Clarkson/Leigh has a better record, and a really good class of Sophomores.
It will be interesting to see if the Raiders can do anything to slow down the Patriots.
Logan View is going to have to play one of their better matches of the season to come away with a win, in my opinion.
The Raiders can't afford to dig themselves a hole, Logan View needs to get off to a strong start, and build an early lead.
The Raiders probably need to win at least one of the first two sets to have a realistic chance of winning.
Logan View has to do their best to keep things close throughout the match. The Raiders have to do their best to hold leads or remain within striking distance throughout the match as well.
Logan View has a ways to go to get where they want, but this team is making good strides.
There's a lot of season left, and the Raiders have to keep improving and believing. Logan View has to remain resilient as well.
Tuesday's match will be aired on 107.9 the Bull with first serve set for 7:00 p.m.
