Staff Report
It was a
superlative effort by MIC teams in sectional play over the weekend. The
conference crowned three champions, including one major upset. It also had
several other teams advance to the championship match.
The biggest
upset of the weekend came at Zionsville where the Carmel Greyhounds upset once
beaten Hamilton Southeastern in the final. Even more surprisingly, the Hounds
did it in straight sets, 25-23, 25-17, and 31-29.
Warren
Central spent Saturday finishing what it had started earlier in the week. The
Warriors opened tourney play by ousting defending state champion Cathedral in
the opening round. Warren downed two conference foes in winning the sectional
title. They eliminated North Central in four sets in the semi-final and then
outdueled Lawrence North in straight sets in the final. The scores in that one
were 25-23, 25-15, and 25-19.
Highly
regarded Center Grove took care of business in the Greenwood Sectional. The
Trojans dropped the first set to a talented Perry Meridian team, but won in
four sets 21-25, 25-19, 25-16, and 25-21.
Ben Davis
continued to show great improvement as the Giants advanced to the final at Pike
before falling in three sets to Avon. Meanwhile, at Martinsville they called
Northview the comeback ******. The Knights fell behind Terre Haute South by two
sets in the semi-final and then roared back to win. They then repeated the feat
against Terre Haute North in the championship match.
All of the
sectional winners in the MIC feed into the Perry Meridian Regional. Warren
Central got the best of the draw in this case. The Warriors will face Avon in
the second game Saturday morning. Carmel and Center Grove will face off in the
first match of the day.
