Jets Go Down Fighting

Jets welcomed back Dom for their second match of the season against new comers and Sussex Cup winners Arun. A great start to the first set saw the Jets push an experienced Arun team very close, but eventually lose by a few points. Another close second set went to Arun, but the Jets were playing the best volleyball I have seen them play with great back court coverage, strong blocking and setting from Martin. With Matt Wilkes starting the third set the Jets built up a good lead and won a well deserved set. More consistent serving, better serve receive (especially against a topspin serve) and experience in Div1 and the Jets might just of pulled an unlikely victory out of the bag. All in all a very encouraging win with MVP going to Matt Lay, but a strong performance of note from Dom plus great jump serving from Martin. It was a good all round performance that left the coach feeling very proud and looking forward to the next match.
