The No. 1 seed Valley continues to prove that they did earn their seeding after sweeping the No. 8 seed Rich in the quarterfinals on Friday night. But it did not come easily. Leading 2-0 and in the 3rd set of the match Rich was leading 15-7 and looked well on their way to forcing a 4th set in the match. That's when Valley coach Harmony Cox called a timeout and looked at Linsdsey Franklin and told her "to be a wall. They she needs to make Rich fear her. And she took that to heart." Linsdey would then proceed to block anything that tried to come over the net in her area. "After she started being the wall, the rest of the team caught the bug. It was just so fun watching them crawl back and then win convincingly." said Cox Valley would end up winning the 3rd set 25-22 and clinching a spot in the semifinals matchup against a well rounded Manila squad on Saturday at 10:30 AM at the Sevier Valley Center. Valley is looking for their first championship since the 2020 season.
