PREP VOLLEYBALL: Sequim comes back from 0-2 to beat Bainbridge

BAINBRIDGE — Overcoming some tough calls from the officials, the Sequim volleyball team rallied from a 2-0 deficit to beat 3A Bainbridge on the road 3-2 (17-25, 24-26, 25-20, 25-12, 15-11).

Coach Jennie Webber-Heilman said there were some double hits and carries by Bainbridge that weren’t getting called.

“It was nice they came back the way this did. They didn’t let it affect them,” she said.

“In the beginning, it was really rocky. Our team became unified ultimately and it helped us win the game. It was very exciting. It proves hard work pays off,” said Jordan Kidd.

Kendall Hastings had a huge match for the Wolves with 19 kills, five stuff blocks and nine digs. “During the game, we definitely came together,” she said. “Each individual played a huge part to contributing to the team effort.”

Hastings also served 15-for-16 and had three aces.

Angel Wagner was 17-for-19 with five digs, while Kidd served 9-for-10.

Sydney Clark served 24-for-25 with five aces. She added 15 assists and seven digs. Jolene Vaara had eight assists, eight kills, seven digs and two blocks.

Arianna Stovall had four kills and two stuff blocks. Webber-Heilman said one of her blocks on Bainbridge’s big hitter “was pretty exciting.”

The win puts Sequim into a tie for third place in the Olympic 2A League.

The Wolves (3-2, 3-3) will host Bremerton (0-5, 0-5) at 6:15 p.m. today.
