## Caption

To celebrate @mccallumvball’s big win last night in the bi-district playoffs and to tease today’s upcoming “rivalry week” Tuesday Top 10 photo essay, we are pleased to share this photo and caption, which will appear in the photo essay to be posted later today. The essay will feature Mac's rivalry game wins over Ann Richards in volleyball and Travis in the annual Battle of the Bell football game. 

A WIN FOR THE BOOKS: By coming from one set down to defeat the Ann Richards Stars 3-1 on the road Tuesday night, the varsity volleyball team finished the 2023 District 24-5A season as repeat sole district champions. 

For sophomore Lexi Rosenblatt, the win was a shining moment for the team, one that she will always remember.

“I was just immensely proud of everyone,” Rosenblatt said. “It was such a hard-earned win.”

Receiving the district trophy and knowing it was coming home with the team made the win surreal. 

“It’s a great feeling to be handed that trophy two years in a row knowing that we worked so hard,” Rosenblatt said.

While the Knights ultimately came away with the win, losing the first set provided the team with an opportunity to regroup and improve its strategy. 

“We overcame a lot of personal errors,” Rosenblatt said. “Slowly throughout the game, we started giving them fewer points and being more intentional with our playing.” 

While the regular season has come to an end for the Knights, Rosenblatt looks forward to the playoffs and beyond. 

“I look forward to continuing to improve the program and having fun and being competitive,” Rosenblatt said. “Our strategy helps us be efficient and intentional with our wins, whether we play competitive teams or less competitive teams.”

The Knight extended their season this evening with another 3-1 road win after a first set loss, this time at Cedar Creek High School. The face Brenham in the area playoffs site and date to be determined.
