The Lady Raider varsity got tested today at Perkins Middle School as they took on the Rivera Raider Alumni team with the current varsity getting a hard earned win 3 sets to 2. The Alumni came out on fire and they began to relive their glory days and took the first set in commanding fashion. Coach Avelar-Guerra settled down the varsity and they won the the next two sets. The Alumni being coached by varsity assistant Richard Guerra then swooped in and defeated the Varsity in the fourth set to set up the tiebreaker 5 set.
In the fifth set both teams traded points, in the end the current varsity reached 15 points first to secure the win. Both coaches then met and agreed to go to 25 points to keep the game going as the Alumni and Varsity were having too much fun. Eventually the varsity reached 25 point first and that ended the Rivera Varsity Volleyball Alumni game. The players then gathered for pictures a final break being led by Coach Avelar-Guerra.
The Lady Raiders would like to thank the Alumni players for taking time out of their schedules to come and play. they would also like to thank the fans, administrators, and the coaching staff of Perkins Middle School for the use of their facilities.
