  by Everlett. Midway through the second set of Thursday night's Tri-County
• 0:21
  Conference volleyball match, St. Bede's Hannah Heiberger leaped high for an attack
• 0:25
  against host Woodland at the Warrior Dome. Everything leading up to that
• 0:30
  play was great. We had a great pass to our setter Lila
• 0:34
  Kohler and she made a great pass to me, Heiberger said. I
• 0:37
  timed my jump well, but then just didn't get all of the
• 0:40
  ball with hand on the attack, and the ball just kind of
• 0:43
  just rolled over the next I was like, ugh, but it still
• 0:46
  ended up a kill and a point, so I didn't feel as
• 0:48
  bad as I could have. Heiberger got quick redemption, smashing down the
• 0:53
  very next point for a kill, and eventually finished out the Bruins
• 0:57
  twenty five twenty one, twenty five seventeen victory with a powerful winning
• 1:01
  swing on match point. On match point it was kind of the
• 1:05
  same situation. Great pass, great set, but thankfully that time I was
• 1:10
  able to hit it the way I wanted to, Heiberger said. That
• 1:12
  one felt really good. St. Bede improved to 732 overall and 2-1
• 1:17
  in TCC play. Woodland dropped to 111 and 0-3. Hyberger, Kija Lucas,
• 1:23
  and Finley Roo each had five kills to lead the Bruins, while
• 1:26
  Hannah Waskoyak added three kills. Benthia Ernot, Kohler, Hyberger and Washkoyak all
• 1:32
  had two aces, while Lucas recorded a pair of blocks. Grace Longmire
• 1:37
  had six kills, two blocks and an ace to lead Woodland. Aubrey
• 1:40
  Laval and Adriana Kuhn each added three kills for the hosts. Longmire,
• 1:44
  Laval, and Bella Bolt each served an ace. We've been talking about
• 1:49
  and focusing a lot lately on taking care of what is happening
• 1:52
  on our side of the court. Saint Bede coach, Nicole Trenka said,
• 1:56
  We want to make sure we are doing the things we know
• 1:58
  we do well. I thought tonight we were pretty good both offensively
• 2:02
  and defensively. St. Bede held a 13-8 lead in the first set
• 2:06
  before Highberger served up back-to-back aces following a kill by Lucas. Woodland
• 2:12
  closed to within 2218 on a kill by Kuhen and an ace
• 2:16
  by Laval, but a block by Lucas and two Woodland service errors
• 2:19
  ended the first set. This team gets along so well on and
• 2:23
  off the court, Heiberger said. So like to night when we had
• 2:27
  a couple rough stretches, everyone knows that everyone else is there for
• 2:30
  them. For us it's just about sticking together no matter the situation.
• 2:35
  In the second set, three kill by Longmire and one by Kuen
• 2:38
  helped Woodland hold a 7-6 lead. Saint Bede tied the score at
• 2:42
  9-all on a kill by Rue and took the lead for good
• 2:45
  on consecutive kills by Heberger. A four-point serving run by Waskoyak, which
• 2:49
  included two aces and a kill by Lucas, extended the lead to
• 2:53
  1711. Woodland closed to 22-17 on a block by Addy Ewing, but
• 2:59
  the Bruins used a kill by Washkoyak, Woodland's 11th hitting error of
• 3:03
  the match, and Heiberger's aforementioned match point kill to end the night.
• 3:08
  We had a couple of stretches, There
• 3:10
  we made some silly mistakes, a missed serve, or a bad read
• 3:13
  on the ball, but for the most part those stretches were small
• 3:16
  ones, Trenka said. This group is very good about moving to the
• 3:20
  next point if something goes wrong and finding ways to get a
• 3:23
  side out when we need one. There were a lot of times
• 3:27
  where we had different combinations on the floor that we don't normally
• 3:31
  have, but even in those situations I thought the girls adjusted really
• 3:35
  well. Both sides are off until road matches Monday. Woodland will be
• 3:40
  at Ridgevie while Saint Bede will visit La Salle Peru.
