Game Details - Girls Volleyball

Park City coach Matt Carlson wants his team to be the most scrappy team in the 4A state tournament, and his team lived up to that reputation in the 4A quarterfinals. The No. 3 Miners never let No. 6 seed Mountain View build any momentum as it swept the Bruins 25-18, 25-18, 25-18 to advance to Saturday’s 4A semifinals. “We said offensively we’ll just keep being smart and aggressive, but most importantly let’s just create that identity of touching everything defensively and going after it. So it’s kind of a fun switch for our team that way,” said Carlson. He said senior Sofia Stoddard played an “unreal back row” to helped anchor the defense while Marley Rains was great defensive as well. Carlson had high praise for his two middle blockers as well, Isabella Beatty and Caden Lyon. “Our big focus has just been working on creating an identity of being the most scrappy team,” said Carlson. Park City advances to the semifinals to face No. 2 seed Green Canyon.
