Friday afternoon, October 25, 2021, the Pirates traveled to San Antonio for our last away game of the season to battle the Cougars of West Campus and this battle was intense! In the longest match in the history of Lytle volleyball, with a time of two hours and forty minutes, the Pirates secured the win over the Cougars 5 sets (3-2). Our Pirates won the first set, lost set 2 and set 3 and with great teamwork won set 4 and set 5 with some great serves from #14 Gonzalez, #10 Scotello, #1 Lopez, #3 Sprenger, #6 Diaz, and #15 Granato and some great digs from #3 Sprenger, #4 Patino, #12 Garcia, and #2 Martinez. At one point in the match, the game was so intense, I felt a little light-headed…
