Competing at the Gunnison Tournament on Sept. 1, the Mancos High School volleyball team flashed its potential and fell just short of at least two victories while amassing a 1-3 record overall.<\/p>\n

The Bluejays\u2019 next match of the day came against Olathe, and after playing their best volleyball of the season, Mancos walked away with a 25-23, 25-22 victory. Halls again led her team in kills with 10, and Ericka Peacock, Rose and Jaime each smashed down three point-winning shots.<\/p>\n

In Mancos\u2019 third match of the day, the Bluejays squared off against San Juan Basin League rival Dove Creek and lost 25-16, 24-26, 15-7. Highlighting the match was a solid effort by Halls, who had a team-high eight kills. The junior was also credited with a team-high four blocks.<\/p>\n

In their final match of the tournament, the Bluejays squared off against tournament host Gunnison and lost 25-17, 20-25, 15-8. Rose led her team with eight kills while playing a key role during Mancos\u2019 second-set victory. Halls contributed six kills, and Jaime had five.<\/p>\n
