Dock Improves But Falls Short

The first time Dock boys’ volleyball played league rival Haverford, Dock was able to win one set but dropped the match 3-1. This time, in the loud Haverford gym, Dock was able to win 2 sets and almost pull off the upset in the 5th and final set. The entire match was high energy and loud. After Dock won set one, our fans made tons of noise. Then Haverford won set 2 and it was the home crowd that made the noise (with the help of their marching band). Haverford was able to outplay Dock in set 3 as well but set 4 was Dock’s turn to get loud and earn the win. Set 5 was loud every second and both teams seemed poised to win the set. Haverford got the last key plays to get the match win 15-12. Well done Dock.
