HVC 171 Keeps On Rolling

The Heartland Volleyball Club 17's just keep on rolling.  The won the Hardblock/Lou's NE Sports Classic Tournament March 6th for their 2nd tournament win in a row. 

They started the day off against Northeast NE Jrs winning the the 1st game 25-20, but then dropping their 1st lost in quite a while loosing 20-25.  They came back the 3rd game winning 25-20 to win the match. 

Then they went on to beat Blair Elite 3 straight 25-15, 25-19 and 25-11.  The girls are really playing like winners, and seem to be unstopable at this point.  This win put them in the championship bracket.

Their first match in the championship bracket was against the Nebraska Dominators who was ranked 2nd in overall before this tournament so I knew this wasn't going to be easy.  HVC won the 1st game 25-20, but the Dominators came back in the 2nd beating HVC 23-25.  Heartland had been here before in another tournament against the Dominators, but this time it was Heartlands turn and they won the tie breaker 15-13 to advance to the championship game.

They faced Northeast NE Jrs again in the championship game who played very strong in the opening match of the tournament.  Heartland was ready though and won 25-21 and 25-18 to win their 2nd tournament in a row.  This win put them in 2nd place in the overall rankings for F17 Silver.
