When all was said and done at Foxcroft School's Dig Pink Volleyball Tournament Saturday, it was a split decision for the host school's varsity and JV teams as each finished with 1-1 records in their respective three-team divisions.

Teams from Mercersburg Academy in Mercersburg, PA, and King Abdullah Academy in Herndon, VA, participated in the round-robin tournament, which was an early-season exhibition modeled on Foxcroft's popular Think Pink Basketball Tournament held each January. The latter has raised thousands of dollars for the Cherry Blossom Breast Cancer Foundation over the past decade.

In the varsity competition, Foxcroft defeated Mercersburg, 2-0, then lost to King Abdullah Academy, 2-0. Mercersburg beat King Abdullah, 2-1, as all three teams finished 1-1.

King Abdullah won the JV divisions with 2-1 victories over both Foxcroft and Mercersburg. The hosts defeated Mercersburg, 2-1, in the first JV game of the day and finished 1-1. Mercersburg's JV was 0-2.

Foxcroft's varsity team played with great energy in the first match, defeating Mercersburg Academy by scores of 25-21 and 25-20. Senior tri-captain Leah Schuster led the way with eight kills and junior Bella Smith added six. Freshman Gracen King added four assists and five service aces.

After more than an hour's layoff while Mercersburg and King Abdullah played, Foxcroft took the court but clearly did not have the same energy level and fell to King Abdullah, 25-15, 25-12. Smith was a lone bright spot on offense with four kills while Leah sparked the defense with five digs.

In the JV games, freshman Caroline Brown showed some skills as a setter and senior Bailey Renfrow served well in the squad's first competition.
