Emerson-Hubbard falls to Winside and Plainview in Lewis and Clark Conference Tournament
The Emerson-Hubbard Volleyball Team lost 2-0 to Winside and Plainview in the Lewis and Clark Conference Tournament at Winside on Saturday.
The Wildcats took set one 25-23 and set two 25-13.
Plainview claimed the 1st set 25-17, and the 2nd set 25-19.
Not the best way to end the regular season but Emerson-Hubbard ought to like its chances of picking up a win in the postseason.
The Pirates (4-22) take on St. Edward (4-20) in the bunny bracket match of Sub-District D2-3 at Wisner-Pilger late Monday afternoon.
The Beavers lost 2-0 to Riverside and Madison at their home Triangular Tuesday night.
St. Edward lost 2-0 to Winnebago while Emerson-Hubbard swept the Indians 2-0 so that has to give the Pirates hope.
I really think Emerson-Hubbard has a good chance to win this match.
The winner gets Humphrey St. Francis later in the evening, and I think just to get to that match would be a big accomplishment for the Pirates.
I don't expect Emerson-Hubbard or the Beavers to knock off the Flyers, but you never know.
The Pirates have to go into the postseason expecting to do well and have success.
Emerson-Hubbard has to compete, and do everything they can to keep their season alive.
The Pirates have to be focused mentally, and must have their heads in the game at all times.
Emerson-Hubbard can't let crowd noise get to them, and can't be intimidated by the atmosphere at all.
The Pirates have to believe they can go out there and win because anything can happen this time of year.
Emerson-Hubbard has to go out there and put things all together against St. Edward, and Humphrey St. Francis should the two teams play.
The Pirates have to leave it all out on the floor and find a different gear.
Emerson-Hubbard has to raise their level of play, and play better than they did in the regular season.
It's the start of a new season, and everyone is 0-0 as far as I'm concerned.
The Pirates have a new slate, and a chance to go out there and do special things.
Emerson-Hubbard just has to put their minds to it and go out there and get the job done.
First serve is slated for 4:30 p.m.
