The Winning Serve

Last year a travel volleyball team was playing in a tournament in the Fort Wayne Volleyball Club gym. It was about half way through the eight hours that they play, and they were starting to get tired because they were getting hungry. They had lost all of their other games except one, and that put them in a good mood. Now all of the volleyball teams are eating and taking a break. Once everyone is done eating, the Decatur Force team is refereeing another teams game.

Now it is their game time, and they look ready to play. They are playing against one of the Fort Wayne Volleyball Club teams, and those teams are pretty good. These teams ages range from 12 to 13 and the teams look pretty even warming up. The first serve goes to…. the Decatur Force team! First serve is Kiana. She just got 5 points in a row serving. After a while the score is 15 to 14 and the Decatur Force team is winning. Now it is Katie’s turn to serve. She also gets 5 in a row.

After Katie serves and the Fort Wayne Volleyball Club team serves, the score is now 21 to 23 and the Fort Wayne Volleyball Club is winning. It is now Alyvia’s turn to serve. She gets one point, now two! Now the score is 23 to 23! Is the Decatur Force team going to come back with a win? Let’s find out. It is now Maddie’s turn to serve, and she serves it out. It is now game point for the Fort Wayne Volleyball Club team. they serve it, Alyvia passes it up, Maddie sets it up to middle, and Kiana slams it down. Now the score is 24 to 24! This is the closest game I have seen in a while! This is all up to Alyvia. Let’s see what happens. The whole Decatur team looks nervous, especially Alyvia. Here it goes. She serves it right in the middle of the court and no one touches it! They only need one more point to win! Here goes the serve, and they pass it up but the setter cant get there in time! The Decatur Force team is now screaming and jumping up and down! The Decatur Force team is now the winner and they look very happy.
