Carmel coach David Pazely: “After an emotional rollercoaster of intensity last night (a three-set win over DePaul College Prep), Carmel was low on energy for another match tonight. Grayslake Central turned up the pressure in the second set and we had to claw our way back into the game late. We were down 24-23, but were able to equalize. Down again 25-24, but again got a side out and pushed to 26. Charlotte was all over the court tonight bailing us out time and time again, and thankfully our hitters got going late in the second set to edge out a tight victory.”
