The Emery girls pushed forward for a better score in the second set but barely missed with a losing score of 27-25. In the third set, the first repeated itself with 25-16 as the score.
Emery’s next game was at 3:30 p.m. against the North Sanpete Hawks. This time, the girls took the win, 3-2. They won their first two sets with 25-13 in the first and 25-19 in the second. The Hawks advanced in the next two sets, scoring 25-17 for the third and 32-30 in the fourth set. In the fifth and final set, the Lady Spartans scored 15-6, taking the win for this match.
