Spanish Springs losing streak hits three
The first set for Spanish Springs at home on Thursday night against Damonte Ranch went well. The final three sets, not so much.
The Cougars’ skid reached three games with a 25-15, 19-25, 10-25, 9-25 loss to the Mustangs.
“Our kids did a great job set one of playing in rhythm and with confidence,” Spanish Springs coach Alix Cirac said. “Unfortunately, we weren’t able to keep up with them in the later sets. That’ll be the goal moving forward, to remain confident regardless and try to move much faster.”
Spanish Springs dropped to 7-7, 3-3 in the 4A North. Damonte Ranch moved to 10-4, 3-2.
Jordyn Boswell put down a match-high 19 kills in the loss. Alysa Micone added 11. Kirstin Bennett passed out 29 assists.
The Cougars play arguably their most difficult regular season game of the year on Tuesday night at home against Bishop Manogue.
