(Sept. 14, 2010) - They sure named the Cheers Sports Classic with the right moniker as there was plenty of great volleyball to cheer about at the tournament at Loudoun County High School Saturday as the host handed Stone Bridge its first defeat of the season with a 3-2 thriller.
Loudoun County (5-1) prevailed 17-25, 25-21, 25-21, 20-25, 15-11 over Stone Bridge (6-1) in the first match-up of the tournament. The Bulldogs bounced back with wins over Sherando (23-25, 25-8, 25-18, 29-27) and Kettle Run (25-7, 25-11, 29-27) to finish the day 2-1.
The Raiders -- which have won three consecutive AA state titles -- suffered a letdown after the Stone Bridge win with a surprising loss to Kettle Run in three games (25-27, 20-25, 23-25) but County recovered to beat Sherando (25-18, 25-18, 25-20) to also finish the day 2-1.
Sherando salvaged its Saturday with a win over Kettle Run to leave both of those schools at 1-2.
