Cougars downed in three sets

Saturday, August 21, 2010

The North Putnam volleyball team lost to Covenant Christian in three sets Thursday. The Cougars lost 19-25, 18-25 and 8-25.

North Putnam head coach Jill Schrieber was pleased with her team's performance on the night.

"We need to be more aggressive at the net," she said. "We played well overall. I think we did give up on ourselves a little bit in that third game, but overall we're coming together as a team and the more we play the better we're going to be.

"I was pretty proud of the girls and their skills that we've been working on. We got to do that in the game tonight, so yes it's a loss, but we're learning and we're gaining experience every game that we play," Schriber said.

The North Putnam junior varsity also lost, falling 13-25 and 24-25.
