Quietly, Benet had a nice week

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

Fresh off its three-game win over top-ten ranked St. Francis on Wednesday, the Benet boys volleyball team won its third game in a row on Friday with a two-game win over Evanston on Friday night.

Friday in a nonconference match against visiting Evanston, the Redwings found consistency of a positive nature as Bill Foran had 11 kills and two blocks and Mike Quigley added 10 kills to lead the hosts to a 25-22, 25-20 victory.

"Last week at Glenbard East [tournament], for some reason we did not play our game at all," Foran said. "We were slowing down the tempo. But we picked it up this week against St. Francis and now tonight. As long as we play like we can, we can beat anybody."

This is a good sign for the team that took a six-match win streak to the Springfest last week only to lose three of its first four games. Benet (12-5) showed the heart against St. Francis. Now the Redwings need to show this an every day thing.
