Excitement was in the air as the girl’s volleyball team ran onto the court last Thursday. Despite it being a school night, the stands were packed with adamant fans. The opponent: the River Dell Hawks. The prize: A sectional championship.
This game was very important considering that both boys and girls soccer teams as well as the field hockey team had been eliminated from the State competitions. Dodger fans were devastated with these losses so they filled the stands to see if Madison could get the Sectional championship they deserve.
The two teams were neck in neck the first game. The final score was 25-23. This gave a lot of anticipating towards the second game. Despite the close first game, the Dodgers won the second game 25-16.
Although the girls lost at Saturday’s state final, they played well and put up a good fight. The scores of the two games were 18-25 and 23-25. This is the closest they have ever come to winning a state championship. Madison High School is so proud of the team for giving it their all. They have had an exceptional season with 27 wins and only 5 losses.
