The Tigers wrapped up their regular season play last night in a tough matchup against MTCS, the number one team in the district. Despite their best efforts, the Tigers fell in three sets (15-25, 17-25, 14-25). It was a hard-fought battle, showcasing their determination and skill. The Tigers had really great moments during the match. There were big swings, bigger blocks and impressive defense. The Tigers definitely left it all out on the court and should be proud of their effort. The Tigers finished the match with 22 skills, 6 blocks, 2 aces, 51 digs, and 21 assists.
