GARWIN – If there is a matched pair in area volleyball, it has to be Montezuma and Green Mountain-Garwin.
The two played a five-set match on Tuesday night, Sept. 12, with the Wolverines winning the tie-breaking fifth set by a 15-12 score.
If you add up all of the team points scored over the five sets, it comes out to GMG 104, Montezuma 102.
That’s pretty close!
And, it came with all the swings in momentum and emotions that volleyball usually brings.
The Wolverines won sets one (25-19) and four (25-21).
Montezuma took sets two (25-18) and three (25-21), to take a 2-1 lead into the fourth.
The rest, as they say, is history.
It was a successful night for Montezuma in the younger matches.
The Bravettes were 2-0 winners (21-8, 21-4) in the freshman match.
Montezuma won the JV match 2-0 on scores of 21-14 and 26-24 in match with a rip-snorting finish.
The varsity result left Montezuma with an overall record of 5-11.
GMG moved forward with a 5-3 season mark.
UP NEXT – BGM comes to Montezuma on Thursday evening, Sept. 14, for the Bravettes’ senior night.
