It was orange and black versus orange and black, two of the kingpins of the MAC playing for league and bragging rights. Our photo essay of a thrilling Versailles win Tuesday, three games to one.
Versailles – It’s always fun when two really good teams square off, for league rights, for bragging rights, and well…just for fun.
Senior night in Versailles pitted Verailles (16-4) against Coldwater (15-3) and the competition turned out to be breathtaking. That is, some of the rallies went so long, were so physically exhausting, that both teams had a tough time getting their breath.
After dropping the first game to Coldwater 30-28, Versailles came right back on the strength of a fabulous night by junior Danielle Winner and Liz Ording (25 kills) to win in three straight, 25-19, 25-22, and 25-21.

Katie McKibben went out of the court in attempt for this save in game two.
One on one…the action was intense as the Tigers claimed the win over rival Coldwater.
That feeling when you win...teammates surround Danielle Winner to celebrate the Tigers' four-game victory over Coldwater Tuesday, 28-30, 25-19, 25-22, and 25-21. (Press Pros Photos by Julie McMaken Wright)
