North Penn Comments
The North Penn Knights Extend to 6-0 Over CB West
The North Penn Knights, despite a challenging start, visited Central Bucks West on Thursday night and emerged with a 3-1 victory after losing the first set. The Knights, initially out of sorts against the Bucks' tempo offense, showed remarkable resilience. Despite poor passing early in set one, they never gave up. The team's uncharacteristic initial performance leveled off as they settled in against CB West. The Knights lost the opening set 15-25, but their determination was evident.
Set two was a testament to the Knights' unity and collaboration. It was a back-and-forth start, but the team began to gain traction. The passing was led by Senior libero, Kate Donaldson, Senior outside hitter, Madlen Potrusilova, and Sophomore outside hitter, Holland Van Ooyen, who worked seamlessly together. Madlen led set two with four kills, while Holland had two. The momentum in set two began to shift to the Knights as the blocking pressure, a result of their collective effort, shut down the CB West hitters. North Penn evened the match 1-1 with a 25-23 win, demonstrating toughness and grit.
North Penn started set three with a 3-1 lead and built a 7-3 lead, quickly taking control of the game. The Knights led the entire game with timely hitting by Junior middle hitter, Maya Mikulski, who contributed three kills and an ace. Junior setter, Sofie Potrusilova, and Sophomore middle hitter, Siena Andolino, both had solo blocks curtailing the CB West attack. Junior opposite hitter, Teju Arun, with her best offensive match of the season, registered two kills & a block in set three adding production from the right side. The knights take set three 25-18.
The final set of the match started with Holland Van Ooyen stepping to the serving line after trading side outs, building a 4-1 lead. The Knights built on the early lead, 9-5, on the serving of Sofie Potrusilova, and North Penn kept CB West at arm's length until Holland Van Ooyen took her second rotation serves. She built a 15-11 lead, and the Knights' hitters took control. Maya Mikulski and Madlen Potrusilova both had four kills, extending the lead to 20-13. North Penn closed the set and match with a 25-18 win over the Bucks.
The great start to the season continues with a 3-1 win over CB West. The Knights extend the undefeated 2025 campaign to 6-0, and face CB South & Souderton at home next week.
