Jory McDonald landed 9 kills and 4 blocks and Annie McNeely had 5 service aces.

to Bartlett for Championship Victory 02.17.08
The Regiopolis Junior Girls are KASSAA champions after a spectacular
performance in Bartlett Gym tonight against the Frontenac Falcons
(17-25, 26-24, 25-16, 25-11). The third place Panthers shook off a
very timid first set loss against the undefeated Falcons. The momentum
of the game shifted when Regi came from behind to win the second set
26-24. This crucial set win seemed to deflate the Falcons and the
Panthers went on to dominate. The Panthers reeled off several consecutive
points to open the fourth and final set and quickly built an insurmountable
lead. Outstanding play by setter Alicia Deodato in all areas of the
court and 10 kills apiece from Bridget Londry and Jory McDonald were
key to the victory. The win sealed RND's third volleyball championship of the present school year. RND has captured half of the basketball and volleyball championships contested at Bartlett this season. Congratulations to the Junior Girls for their impressive win. Look for some action photos from Bartlett to be posted on the team web pages in the coming days. The Panthers Productions page will also be updated with a team movie. A

However, KCVI was not ready to back down and re-gained the lead with a third set victory. Going into the 4th set, the girls knew they faced a challenge to come back from being down 2-1. Jory McDonald continued her dominating play and landed 6 kills, leading the Panthers to a 4th set victory and setting up the spectacular 5th set. Regi fell behind early 5-0, climbed back into the game, but were still down 8-7 at the break. Outstanding play by Melanie Robb and Annie McNeely in the back court and Jenny Wright's consistent smart net play pushed Regi to one point from victory with a 14-10 lead. With KCVI's season on the line, Nadia Putos' 5 consecutive powerful serves put the Blue's in the lead 15-14. The game went back and forth for the next 7 points with Regi facing elimination another 2 times. Alicia Deodato, who played superbly as a setter for all 5 sets, served the final 3 points of the match to secure a Regi victory.  Nailbiting
