The 8th grade Gold team played away against Hoover Black tonight. In an interesting turn of events, the 7th grade match was delayed by almost 30 minutes due to a leaky ceiling after some heavy rainfall!
The 8th grade Gold team played one of its best matches to date! They were extremely well matched with the Black team in game 1 and ended up winning in exciting fashion, 26-24.
The girls continued on strong and played great the second game! They showed no mercy as the Black team struggled more and more as the game went on. The girls won 25-12!
The 7th grade Gold team played much better today! They were also very even with the Hoover Black team. They ended up losing in two games but showed much improvement!
The 7th grade Purple team lost to Hoover Orange and the 8th grade Purple team beat Hoover Orange.
At least we went .500 against our rivals tonight! Go Bears!

Scorekeepers
We want to give a shout-out to our 3 new scorekeepers for the Gold teams! A big thank you goes out to Autumn, Brynn, and Naudia! Thanks girls!
Match vs Lake White
Yesterday, the 8th grade Gold match played Lake White. The girls started out sluggish and seemingly un-enthused (much to the chagrin of Coach Dannug and Coach Johnson). They lost the first game 16-25 and stayed looking down through almost half of the second. Then they finally came alive!
The girls started to pick things up and won the second game 25-21 (after being down by 8 points!). The girls then continued playing well through the third game and won 25-19!
The 7th grade Gold team also had a rough night, losing to Lake White in 2 games.
Both the 7th and 8th grade Purple teams beat Perry Black in 3 games.
Go Bears!

Match vs Oakwood Green
The 8th grade Gold team played Oakwood Green tonight in our Federal League and Home Opener!
The girls were excited to begin league play and it really showed in their play! They went hard against last year's league champs and won the first game, in exciting fashion, 25-23.
The second game was even the whole way through although our Gold girls lost a bit of their momentum during an almost 10 minute delay where Oakwood was out of rotation and that was trying to be corrected. However, the girls continued to play hard but came up short, losing 21-25.
The third game was another close one! Unfortunately, the Gold team missed several serves, some in crucial times, that caused the Oakwood Green team to come away with the win.
The girls played really well for our first home match and were not playing nervous in front of the big crowd! We'll get Oakwood Green next time!
The 7th grade Gold team also played Oakwood Green. They were a bit rough around the edges but played well together and showed perseverance! They won the first game 26-24 and the second 25-22.
The 7th and 8th grade Purple teams opened their Federal League season tonight by playing Hoover Black. They both won in 3 games.

Early Bird Tournament
Today the JMMS volleyball teams participated in their first matches of the year in the "Early Bird Tournament" hosted at Jackson High School.
The 8th grade Gold team played its first match of the season against Wadsworth, who was probably the best team at the tournament, other than our own Jackson teams! The girls were without Lyndsey in that match and really came together to overcome the last minute absence! They played great! Mak had a string of serves which included several aces! The girls won 25-14 and 25-19.
Next, they played Northwest. Lyndsey was back and they were ready to roll! They played an amazing first game, with Ava leading the way with a bunch of serves in a row! They won 25-6. Northwest gained some momentum in the second game and the Gold team struggled a bit with passing. The girls managed to pull out the win 25-23.
Their last match of the day was against the talented Louisville. They played pretty well in the first game and it was very close the entire time. The girls couldn't quite get ahead enough for the win and lost 23-25. The second game the girls came on strong and won 25-13, with the help of a string of great serves from Aly, which forced a third game. Unfortunately the girls were not able to pull out the win in that game either, although they may have if it had gone to 25 (like our normal matches) instead of 15 (for the tournament).
Regardless, the girls played great in their first tournament and will start the season with a 2-1 record! Great job Riley, Lyndsey, Ava, Karlie, Mak, Lauren, Aly, and Ally! We missed you Kayla!
The 8th grade Purple team lost its first match to Marlington but beat Cuyahoga Falls and Massillon to also start out the season with a 2-1 record!
Updates on the 7th grade results will come soon.
