Varsity Volleyball Reports

The DDS varsity volleyball team has gotten a good jump on the season with three resounding wins over Rumsey. In the first match of the season, serving was a critical part of the team’s success. Eddie Castillo led the attack with 28 service points, in the course of three games. Hannah Hill finished the final game of the match with five serves in a row. The final tally was 25-10, 25-18, 25-16. In the second match, serving was once again the deciding factor, though Rumsey was tougher this time on defense. Eddie Castillo again served well, with 11 points in two games. He was joined this time by Delaney Bailey, with 7 points, and Alexa Colangelo, with 8 points. The scoring was a real team effort. The end result was 25-14, and 25-18, another Dutchess win. In their third head to head with Rumsey, the teams were more seasoned, and there were some good volleys in each game. DDS had a very balanced scoring attack, with several servers contributing to the score. In the three games played, Paige Reifler had eighteen points, Kayleigh Jones had 14 points, Eddie Castillo had 13 points, and Alexa Colangelo had 12 points. The final scores were 25-10, 25-14, and 25-6, match to DDS. To this point, Dutchess Day is enjoying an undefeated season. Please come out and cheer them on, if you get the chance. It’s nice to play in front of a home crowd.
