MOSES LAKE — College athletes continue through their early season matchups as the fall season settles in. Check out where your favorite teams will be competing this week.
Eagles fall at home to Odessa
SOAP LAKE — The Soap Lake Eagles volleyball team (1-4) fell to Odessa (3-1) Wednesday evening. Though the Eagles lost in three sets, the closeness of each set showed the young squad a lot about where they need to improve moving further into their season, head coach Erin Fletcher said. “I felt like we beat ourselves,” said Fletcher. “We have come so far, I think it was a really good matchup against us and Odessa, but it wasn’t a game where I feel like we truly got beat, but instead kind of beat ourselves.” Mental errors down the stretch were ultimately what ended up costing the Eagles deep into their sets. While this can be frustrating for the team, Fletcher said as the girls gain more varsity experience, they will learn how to navigate through that.
