Congratulations to Exeter for the win and a well-fought battle. We look forward to our rematch Nov. 11 😄
Four sets of high level volleyball, great hard-hitting offense, and highlight reel defense on both sides.

In the third set Exeter took an early lead 14-5, but Andover stormed back to a 17-17 tie. Exeter prevailed for a 25-20 and 2-1 lead. In the fourth set Andover tokk a 7-0 lead, but gave it right back going down 7-12. Tied at 13-13, Exeter crept into a lead 16-15, 20-16, 23-19, 25-21.
Exceptionally entertaining volleyball (and this coach lost another three years off his life) with amazing support from fans and parents. Deep gratitude.
Happy Birthday to co-captain Mary.
Onward to hosting NMH this Saturday on Family weekend.
