Freedom Secures Home Tournament Quarterfinal Match with Win over PF
Freedom celebrated Senior Night -- the Eagles honored eight seniors, five players and three managers -- by clinching the school's first ever volleyball district tournament home match with an exciting five-game win over Potomac Falls.
Scores were 25-18, 17-25, 25-21, 22-25, and 15-8.
Says Freedom coach Dave Tsuda: "All of the Eagle players individually and collectively contributed to an electric performance! A great finishing tribute to our senior players, senior managers, and fans alike."
The win wrapped up Freedom's best ever regular season with a 6-6 district and 10-10 overall records.
Freedom's quarterfinal will be a rematch as the Eagles host Potomac Falls on Tuesday.
In the earlier games the Freedom freshmen completed their season with a hard battle. But lost in two; scores were 15-25, 17-25. "The scores do not reflect the point-by-point trading at the first half of each gam," reported Tsuda.
The Freedom JV won convincingly in two games. Scores were 25-14, 25-21. That finishes a great season for the Freedom JV: 7-5 in District, and 13-7 overall.
