Spurred on by an energetic home court advantage and a large and loud student section, the Tigers then broke away from the Skiers with a 25-19 victory in the second set. Summit won the third set 25-16.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Schneweis credited the Tigers\u2019 offense for the victory Tuesday night, as the coach said the team\u2019s system really began to clock against Aspen. That included precise passing and ideal set location, as senior captain and starting libero Courtney Brown played a huge role in the Tigers offense finding and sustain confidence.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Brown also provided perhaps the most pivotal play of the game. It came with the Tigers already up two games to zero and ahead 7-5 in the third set, as Brown dove to her left out-of-bounds to save possession, ultimately leading to a Tigers point and further momentum.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cOur coach, Kelly, always tells us that the only thing we can\u2019t do on defense is let the ball drop,\u201d Brown said. \u201cSo we\u2019ll push ourselves to the limit to get any ball. So any time I step on the court, no matter if I\u2019m playing in the libero jersey, playing defense, that\u2019s the No. 1 goal: to get the ball and keep it in play. So that\u2019s all that was running through my head: to keep this in and to keep my team in the game.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Summit returns to action at home Thursday evening, hosting Battle Mountain at 6:30 p.m.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText Subhead\">Boys soccer<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">The Summit High varsity boys soccer team\u2019s record dropped to 0-3 on Thursday with a 5-0 loss to Battle Mountain.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">The Tigers played with the Huskies early, settling into some solid possession and build-up play during the middle portion of the first half, before Battle Mountain found the back of the net in the 21st minute.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Summit\u2019s strongest scoring chance of the first half came two minutes later, when junior midfielder Alex Casillas got behind the Huskies defense in the box and nearly got his boot to a cross into the box off of a direct kick.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Then right before the half, at the 40th minute, Battle Mountain sophomore midfielder Bryant Ramirez perfectly one-timed a cross into the box with the inside of his left foot, finding the back of the net for a convincing 2-0 lead.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Despite the loss, Tigers goalkeeper Jesus Alvarado played a strong first half in place of senior Chris Orozco.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Alvarado made six first half saves, including a few of the diving variety and a couple where he made confident aggressive plays charging to the edge of his box.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">The Tigers will return to action on Saturday to take on Palisade at Longs Park in Grand Junction. Summit\u2019s next home game will be Thursday, Oct. 3, versus Glenwood Springs at Tiger Stadium at 6 p.m.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.summitdaily.com\/news\/sports-news\/summit-high-girls-volleyball-defeats-aspen-boys-soccer-loses-to-battle-mountain-5-0\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: Summit Daily<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CJ Novotna jumps to return a volley as Summit High plays Aspen in varsity volleyball at Summit High in Breckenridge, Colo. on Tuesday.
