The No. 2 Reservoir volleyball team was in dire need of a spark. The Lady Gators had just been picked apart by River Hill outside hitter Maddi Lee and were down 1-0 in games in the Hawks gymnasium. Reservoir captain Jamie Huffman huddled the team together, and yelled, "Ladies, we have all the momentum!" She was right, as the team reeled off three straight games to win, 3-1 (21-25, 25-15, 25-15, 25-19). "It was only one game, there's still four more to play if we needed to," Huffman said.

Bel Air wanted to keep the ball out of Aberdeen guard Kashif Brown's hands last night. The plan worked nicely - for the first three quarters.

The 6-foot, 160-pound Brown was able to get into the lane in the fourth period much more than earlier. Brown often tried to create for 7-foot center Robbie Jackson (16 points, 14 rebounds)
