Millar Closes Out League Play With Wins Over Burman
Updated: Nov 26, 2018
The Millar Edge finished out their season on Friday afternoon as both teams played their final league games against the visiting Burman Bobcats.
The Ladies game started out the exact opposite of the game the night before as Burman came out and crushed the Edge in the first two sets ( 25-21 and 25-9). It looked like the Bobcats would run away with things, but then the Edge started to find their groove and made some key plays. They ended up taking the next 3 sets (25-23, 25-16, 15-13) and winning the match. The Edge finish the season with a 7-5 overall record.
The men’s game followed and it was not a short one either as both teams came out strong. The Bobcats had much more confidence this time around and ended up taking the first set (25-20). The Millar Men responded with a strong showing of their own in the 2nd set taking it 25-17. From then on, the following two sets were back and forth but in the end, Millar won them both and the match (25-22, 26-24) to finish off their season at a perfect 9-0.
The teams will close out their season next weekend as they head to Prairie for the PAC championships.
