EVERETT — When Glacier Peak volleyball won the first set 25-18 against Everett on Monday, it marked its seventh straight set win to open the season.
Everett knew it needed to make an adjustment. Glacier Peak had scored on three straight aces early on to build a 4-0 lead and never looked back. Everett coach Heather Turner wanted her team to shift into an attacking mindset going into the second set.
“I told them to stop hesitating on defense and to just go after the ball,” Turner said. “And they did that. They cleaned up their serve receive and their defense quite a bit, so we were able to run our offense at that point.”
Picking up their energy, stabilizing their passing and making key blocks at the net, the Seagulls (3-0) cruised to a 25-10 win in the second set before picking up wins in
