COBLESKILL — Boys Varsity Volleyball coming off a 5 game winning streak, has lost the last 3 matches. The boys have come up short with hard effort and competition against Ichabod Crane, Coxsackie Athens, and Catskill. Coach Davis said, “These are the toughest teams we have faced this season, and we certainly can play on this level.”

The Bulldogs were able to contain these teams that have either been undefeated or close to undefeated records. “The Boys are playing at a good level of volleyball,” Davis said. Markus Trappenburg and Kole Wayman have been leading CR’s offense on the net with Markus bringing in 21 kills, and Kole bringing in 23 kills over the last 3 matches. Connor Testa and Benjamin Walrath are making these other teams that can hit the ball work with their blocks on the net. Benjamin led with 5 blocks, and Connor with 3. Aidan Carr has proven vital on the serving line delivering 7 aces. CR played Voorheesville next on Feb. 6, but results were not available prior to press time.

Coach Davis said, “We are shaping up to be in an extremely competitive position for sectionals, already beating our potential first-round team Hudson earlier this season.”
