The Lady Jeffs were tested on the court this past week, coming away with two hard fought Victories. Tuesday Fairbury hosted Milford, with Fairbury coming out on top after a 5 set war. Fairbury won the opening set, with Milford evening it up taking the second. The Lady Jeffs went up 2-1 after the third, but the Eagles came back, winning the fourth, sending the match to a deciding fifth set. Fairbury went out and won the fifth set and the match.
In Thursday’s match Fairbury battled Auburn on the road and came home with a 3-1 Win. Auburn took the first set which lit a fire in the Lady Jeffs who won the next three sets to win the match.
Coach Hinrichs was pleased with his team, but is taking no match for granted; “It was a good week on the floor for the Lady Jeffs with 2 wins. Milford proved to be a tough match for us at home as expected and Thursday at Auburn we got a win on the road which is always good. We are trying to get through some recent injuries and soreness so hopefully the weekend will help. Next week proves to be a big week with the Tuesday match at always tough Thayer Central and Thursday/Saturdays tournament at Malcolm always has tough competition.”
