As a team, Kern Valley was able to set up the ball and hit frequently which helped us to secure the wins in games one, four and five. Furthermore, our defense was aggressively digging so that nothing dropped in the back court which resulted in some fantastic rallies. The team showed up with a competitive edge and earned their league win.”
