Emerging undefeated from the first pool, Montrose then had to take on Palisade in the first crossover match. After defeating Palisade in straight sets of 25-18, 25-13, and 25-16, the Indians then had to face top-seeded and host Rock Canyon for the district 8 championship.
With the team obviously tired after three matches, Forrest did not expect to take Rock Canyon out in straight sets. So when the team won with three consecutive set scores of 25-22, she was elated. “I don’t have any individual who stood out. Everyone did their job. It was a huge team effort.”
