AGWSR picks up pace after losing libero to injury

ACKLEY – North Butler coach Bryan Tabbert said he’d probably lose some sleep over this one.

His team had a 2-0 set lead over AGWSR and held match point in the fourth set, but the Cougars, inspired after losing their scrappy libero Maddie Deters to injury, rallied for a 3-2 match win over his Bearcats, 18-25, 18-25, 26-24, 25-22-15-10.

“I don’t think I’ll even go to sleep,” Tabbert said after the Thursday, Sept. 25 match, “so I might as well just not stop (kicking myself) until morning.”
