The Kitty Kats are playoff-ready. After falling to Nixon-Smiley earlier in the season, Yorktown came back strong Monday night, cruising to a 3–0 shutout over the Lady Mustangs.
Yorktown opened the match with confidence, taking the first set 25– 18 behind steady serving and aggressive play at the net. Their defense held firm, keeping Nixon-Smiley from finding any rhythm.
The second set proved to be a nail-biter. The Kats led from the start but saw the Mustangs tie things up at 21–21 and again at 23–23. Avery Martin broke the stalemate with a powerful kill from the middle, then rotated to serve and delivered an ace to close out the set, 26–24.
