B-n-S entered the Marianas High School Gymnasium yesterday with a mission and despite dropping the third set, managed to get back to its dominant ways and went on to defeat Just For Fun, 53-30, as action continued in the 2005 World Organized Rocball High School League.<\/p>\n
As reported earlier, B-n-S had complete control of the match in the first two sets, leading 32-8, before game official Jim Feger put a hold on the game after the allotted time expired.<\/p>\n
It was a new day yesterday and was more so for Just For Fun, who blew away all in attendance by jumping the gun and getting off to a stunning start in the third set. Kevin Aldan served for six straight points and Just For Fun took the early lead. The team found itself with a 9-0 lead before B-n-S managed to get a kee to get on the board.<\/p>\n
The kee was quickly erased, though, as Just For Fun connected for a xunk and chose to subtract the two points off of B-n-S. It was all Just For Fun from there as the team went on to a 16-6 win, cutting their deficit to 14 points, 24-38.<\/p>\n
B-n-S had to win the fourth set to juice out and did so in convincing fashion. Myron Laniyo served for four aces and a xunk to kick off their retaliation and the game was quickly put away, ending with Laniyo making a diving save that sent the ball up in the air. The ball soon touched the floor but not after it was smacked by B-n-S for the game-winning kill.<\/p>\n
Laniyo finished as the game\u2019s heavy hitter with four aces, two xunks, and three kees for 18 points. Aldan led Just For Fun with six points on two aces and a kee.<\/p>\n
Action in high school Rocball resumes tomorrow as Black Magic and defending champion Mwaliyas test each other.<\/p>\n
