In a battle of the area’s number three ranked and number ten ranked volleyball teams, it was the higher ranked team, Community School, that emerged as the 3-1 winner Friday, September 6, over visiting Marco Island Academy.
Community School won 25-9, 25-15, 23-25, 25-13 in a school day match that saw the home gym filled with CSN'selementary, middle school, and high school students. The elementary-aged students showed the most spirit, shouting cheers throughout the match.
The young Rays (6-3), with no seniors on the roster, are facing a beefed-up schedule this season to prepare themselves for post-season play. Several freshmen are starting or playing key minutes for MIA. Taking a game against a top three area team like Community School can be looked at as a building block for the young Rays.
The Rays played at Naples High on Monday, September 9, then visit Seacrest, the area’s number one team, on Monday, September 16.
