Facing a must win 4th set the Vikings pushed their lead to 24-19 then closed it out with a nice bump from Gracie Sullivan over to Saylor Johnston which set up Carly Anderson who then pummeled a hard spike to clinch the 4th set sending it to a deciding 5th set.
In that 5th set the Vikings pulled away for a 14-12 lead but Sequim dug in and got the next point to make 14-13. Serving for the Wolves was Julmust who sent it deep and after a quick back and forth at the net North Kitsap’s Carly Anderson flipped a shot over and the Wolves could not rally to the soft return in time to get a good set and it rolled into the net and dropped for the game winning point.
