MERIDIAN 3, LYNDEN CHRISTIAN 2
Last season, the final volleyball match for these two teams was against each other for 7th place in the 1A state tournament, which the Lyncs won in straight sets.
It was looking eerily similar on Wednesday night at Diane Axelson court in Laurel when Lynden Christian won the first two sets, both by the score of 25-18.
However, the Trojans were able to find a soft spot in the LC defense, and was able to rally to win the next three sets 25-18, 25-17 and 15-12.
Sophomore Melanie Short led Meridian with 19 kills, 16 digs and six aces, and she was aided by junior Eden Bernardy who added 16 kills and 13 digs.
Senior middles Gracie Pap and Taya Benson had seven kills a piece, senior Chloe Bressler handed out 45 assists and senior libero Kinsley Neal finished with 10 digs.
The Lynden Christian front line totaled 10 blocks on defense, with 6-foot-2 junior Jocelyn Eshuis leading the way with four. She also added six kills, three aces and three digs.
Sophomore Tyra Dykstra had a team-high 18 kills, and senior Ella Fritts finished with 40 assists, eight digs and two blocks.
