Flames get the "W" against Park!

Hey Flames Fans!

Well we just returned from Kansas City, Kansas where we faced up against the Park University Pirates! We knew we had to come out strong after a tough loss Friday night against College of the Ozarks. Even though the team was NOT so pumped up to be leaving at 7am, we arrived ready to compete with some FIRE!

The Flames started off the first game going back and forth with the Pirates, but managing to shut down Park's big hitters with our block when we needed to. We won the first game 25-20, and came out in the 2nd game with the same intensity. The Flames once again found the holes in Park's defense, and went on great serving run's to keep the Pirates out of system most of the game, winning the second game 25-19. We knew that Park wasn't going to give us this match that easy, so we were motivated to finish off the match and get on the road (we were also ready to EAT!). Even though the Pirates mananged to fight off a 23-15 lead to make it a little bit closer, the Flames finished the match with a third game win at 25-20.

Great job today girls! Way to hustle and keep the intensity! Let's keep this momentum all week and use it in our matches next week!

Also, thanks to the fans who traveled down to KC to see us play! You guys are the best!
You stay classy Flames fans ;) Stay tuned for updates on next weeks matches!
