Novotny totaled 11 kills while Wiese had 10. Steffensmeier managed 36 digs while McEvoy and Kasik totaled 25 and 19, respectively. Held had 11 digs and 26 set assists.

The Patriots continue to play superb Volleyball. Stanton continues to give Clarkson/Leigh fits though for whatever reason.

Clarkson/Leigh (7-3) takes part in the Hampton Tournament on Saturday.

I thought this tournament really got Patriot Volleyball on the map, and was the team's coming party last year seeing as they won the tournament.

I think Clarkson/Leigh is even better this year than they were last year, and I look for the Patriots to make this tournament memorable once again.

I think Clarkson/Leigh has all the tools and pieces in place to win this tournament again.

The Patriots have to be ready to go from the start of the tournament until the very end.

Clarkson/Leigh has to continue to make memories that will last a lifetime.

The Patriots have already done so many good things this season, and I look for the winning to continue on Saturday.

Clarkson/Leigh has to go out there and have fun, and enjoy this time with their teammates.

These are the kind of matches and moments that will create memories that will last a lifetime.

These girls already work so well together and play such good team Volleyball that I believe they can be successful against anyone they play on Saturday.

It's somewhat of a long road trip, but I'm sure these girls are anticipating playing some good Volleyball on Saturday.

Clarkson/Leigh has to try and be calm and relaxed the night before and get a good night's rest although that is never easy.

The Patriots have to be fired up and motivated, yet calm, loose, and relaxed during the course of the day.

This is Clarkson/Leigh's chance to make another statement in the East Central part of the State, and show people they are still for real.

The Patriots have a very nice team once again this year, and I look for Clarkson/Leigh to go out there and play great Volleyball on Saturday.

It should be a very memorable day and weekend for the Patriots.

Clarkson/Leigh has to go out there and make all their hopes and dreams come true with another championship.

Back-to-back Hampton Tournament Championships would be quite the feat, and the Patriots are definitely capable of making it happen.
