Warrenton needed a second-set rally to defeat St. Clair on Monday night, and Morgan Boesel was prepared to deliver.The senior helped the Warriors unleash six unanswered points while serving midway through the second match, securing the victory for her team.Warrenton improved to 4-2, winning (25-16, 25-20).The Warriors are yet to play a three-set match, with each of their six competitions having been decided early.After a dominant showing in the opening set against St. Clair, the Warriors struggled to match their performance in the second set.“We didn’t have as much control of our passes as we wanted, but we were finding the spots and making good plays,” said Van Horn. “We were getting the ball down to their side and letting them make mistakes was really what helped us out.”Warrenton jumped ahead 5-1 in the first match, before the Bulldogs clawed back at 8-7.The Warriors regained control, going ahead 21-12 and maintaining that margin with Daphne Meine closing out the match as server.“Consistent serves are something we’ve really struggled with the last couple of matches and tonight they did a great job of getting their serves in and making a run,” said Van Horn.St. Clair took command of the second set early, going ahead 5-0 before Warrenton finally rallied.The teams traded points until notched at 11, when Boesel began serving. Taking a 17-11 lead, the Warriors fended off St. Clair’s final attempt at a comeback.“I told the girls we’ve got to fix our passes, because our setter, Chelsea (Crump), is working too hard,” said Van Horn. “They did a better job of getting passes to Chelsea, and she did a great job of finding her hitters.”Boesel and sophomore Nicole Hardt each finished with three kills.“Nicole was awesome tonight,” said Van Horn. “She had a couple of great hits and really put the ball down. She was able to find those open spots on their side.”Meine led the Warriors with six kills, while Rachel Reckamp added five aces.“Lauren has really improved the past two weeks on her passing,” said Van Horn.
