West Point-Beemer falls to Norfolk Catholic; splits Oakland-Craig Triangular










The West Point-Beemer Volleyball team is 1-2 in their last three matches, falling 3-1 at home to Norfolk Catholic last Thursday night, and 2-0 to DC West at the Oakland-Craig Triangular Tuesday night, but beating the host Knights 2-0 at the Triangular.

The Cadets took set one from Norfolk Catholic, 25-15, only to see the Knights win the next three sets 25-19, 25-18, and 26-24.

West Point-Beemer defeated Oakland-Craig 25-17 in the first set, and 25-13 in the second set.

The Falcons upended the Cadets 25-12 in set one, and 25-18 in set two.

West Point-Beemer did a really nice job in the Oakland-Craig match. I'm not sure what happened in the other two matches though.

The Cadets (9-8) take part in the Wisner-Pilger Invite on Saturday.

First up for West Point-Beemer is O'Neill (9-5).

The Eagles swept Plainview 3-0 at home Tuesday night.

This doesn't figure to be an easy match by any means for the Cadets.

West Point-Beemer can definitely win if they play up to their potential though.

The Cadets have to be ready to play from the get go Saturday morning.

The girls have to wake up and be excited to play the game of Volleyball.

The players have to prepare mentally and physically in practice this week.

Having three days to practice for this tournament definitely helps West Point-Beemer, in my opinion.

The Cadets can work on some things they struggled with in the DC West match.

If West Point-Beemer plays the way they did against Oakland-Craig they can definitely knock off O'Neill.

But if the Cadets play the way they did against DC West and Norfolk Catholic then it could be a tough start to the day for West Point-Beemer.

It all depends on which Cadet team shows up, in my opinion.

Hopefully it's good West Point-Beemer cause the Cadets could really benefit from success in this tournament with the East Husker Conference Tournament coming up next week.

West Point-Beemer has a big week next week with a home triangular against Scribner-Snyder and Stanton as well so the Cadets have to play well and set the tone on Saturday so to speak.

West Point-Beemer has to get fired up and have some giddy up in their step. The Cadets have to be excited for the opportunity to have a good day of Volleyball on Saturday.

First serve between the Cadets and Eagles is set for 10:00 am.
