With Matt Lay and Bernard returning for the away match against Horsham, the Jets were back to full strength again and looking forward to a tough match.
The first set went to the Jets who started strongly, but did let Horsham have a run of points towards the end of the set. With three changes to the line up the Jets carried on in the same vein and secured another easy set. With more changes in the third set the Jets were in danger of dropping the set as Horsham rallied and the Jets took their foot of the pedal. Some strong serving from Matt L followed by a set changing pick up from Dan got the Jets back on level terms as the set headed for a tense finish. With the set at 21-22 and the Jets serving Josh was bought back on court at position 2 where he nailed 2 blocks in a row before Iain returned on court to close the match out.
Highlights from the match include strong serving from all most of the time, an ever improving block and a better first pass than in the last match. Good to see the back court option being played and need Dom to keep calling for it and keep swinging as it is a good out ball when we play the stronger teams.
Good hitting from Bernard, Kishan and Iain through the outside and I still maintain we have the strongest middle attack in the league (sorry Sharks) no matter which 2 from 3 middle hitters are on court. MVP went to Matt Lay (great ownership of the net) and it was another great all round performance.
