Game Recaps 2025

9/30/25

The Lady Bisons went against Buffalo Science JV, Tuesday afternoon for the first time. It started off a little rocky for the girls, as they couldn't seem to lock in early on in the game. After some refocusing, they were able to find their rhythm and took off from there. They ran straight through three sets for the win.

Emilylynn Spillman came out as our top server for the game, earning 16 service points, 10 hits and 4 kills for the team, followed closely by Zarielle Ormsby with 14 points, 3 serving aces, 9 hits and 2 kills. Isabella Centinello-Perez earned her own 14 points and was able to take a rest for a time while our new setter, Laurieliz Saquicela, gained more time on the floor. Adrita Juhi also made varsity debut on the court at today's game! 

The girls as a team played great together and this truly was a team win. Please congratulate the girls on a game well played and think about coming to our next home game, this Thursday, where we will level up and take on Buffalo Science Varsity in our gym. I promise, these girls are a team you want to see.

9/26/25-9/27/25 RSD Homecoming

The Lady Bisons made the trip up to Rochester this weekend to take on two different teams at the Rochester homecoming event. The Lady Bisons first stepped up against PSD in what ended up being a humbling game for our girls. After winning two fairly easy sets, the girls suffered an injury when YGA went down with a sprained ankle. Without one of our strongest setters, we relied on our newest back up setter to come in and fill some big shoes. Laurieliz Saquicela was nervous, but ready to give it a try. She finished out the game against PSD as one of our main setters, which was a first for this young girl. This one truly was a serving game, with Isabella-Centinello-Perez, Ellianna Sanders and Zarielle Ormsby going on runs in every set. While the girls didn't have to work for this win as hard as they usually do, they still had to hustle in the end and pull together as a team to make the win happen.

As soon as that game is over, our Lady Bisons had to step up against the RSD Wildcats yet again. After having experienced what these girls can do before, our Bisons knew that they couldn't take it easy straight from the get-go. Though Rochester continues to have some very strong servers, our girls refuse to let them run away with every point. Yaindhi Garcia Agustin stepped back in even after her injury, refusing to give up the fight against Rochester and Isabella Centinello-Perez kept pushing through as our other main setter, until a serious injury brought her down towards the end of the third set. Laurieliz Saquicela stepped in again for our other setter and finished out the game strong. Emilylynn Spillman and Elliana Sanders we're running across the court covering wild passes while JulieRaye Drabant and Aubrey Krieger managed a few truly awesome saves. Zarielle Ormsby led the team on the attack, with 10 hits and 3 kills. Though the scores may not show it, the girls really stepped up this game, improving each round that they went against RSD. Some of the points went back and forth over the net several times before the ball hit the ground making this an awesome game to watch. Sadly, the girls couldn't seem to stop 2 servers from running away with the score or prevent their strongest hitter from getting in some good kills. 

No, the scores in the end may not show it, but our girls fought for every point, and their growth every game, continues to shine through. Please congratulate the girls on their win and their fight from this weekend. We hope to see people at our next home game, which will be Thursday, Oct. 2 against Buffalo Science at 4pm.

The Lady Bisons took on Central Baptist JV, for the first time this year. The girls have been working hard trying to fix mistakes from the past few games in order to prove that they can hold their own against other teams. They came out strong and fought the whole game against the Lady Lions. 

Zarielle Ormsby led the pack with an impressive 11 hits and 4 kills. Emilylynn Spillman refused to be outdone, and eared her own 6 hits and 2 kills, including one impressive back row ace. Isabella Centinello-Perez and Yaindhi Garcia Agustin tied for our top servers, each adding 13 points on the board. Elliana Sanders stepped up at the net and earned her own 2 hits and 1 kill, while the rest of the Lady Bisons scrambled around the court keeping balls in play.

The girls earned their first win of the season, winning 2 out of 3 sets over the Lady Lions. Please congratulate all the girls on an amazing job well done. Our next game will not be until this weekend, when we will head to Rochester to take on the wildcats for the second time as well as PSD.

The Lady Bisons took on the RSD Wildcats for the first time this season at home. The girls struggled with a few minor injuries throughout the game and really couldn't seem to find their footing. A few big saves and some great teamwork kept them fighting until the end, but it just wasn't enough against the Wildcats. The lady Bisons ended up falling to the Wildcats in 3 straight sets.

Emilylynn Spillman earned 2 kills with 5 hits this game. Zarielle Ormsby switched it up a little, filling in for some of our setting rotations while Yaindhi Garcia Agustin and Isabella Centinello-Perez keep earning their assists from the sets. JulieRaye Drabant, Aubrey Kreiger and Laurieliz Saquicela earned some extra time on the floor while Elliana Sanders helped out at the serving line. 

Overall, the girls played well together and hopefully they will learn some things from this game that they can take with them next week, when we travel to RSD for their homecoming tournament.

The Lady Bisons played their first away game against Global Charter yesterday afternoon. It was a tough game where our girls couldn't seem to find the same fire that they had last week. After fighting through 4 sets again, the girls couldn't seem to keep it together long enough to pull off a win and ended up losing in the 4^th set. 

Zarielle Ormsby led the team with 11 kills and 19 service points. Ellianna Sanders brought in another 18 service points and 3 kills. Isabella Centinello-Perez kept the ball alive in the setting position throughout the game while Yaindhi Garcia Agustin added her own 2 kills to the board. Emilylyn Spillman made a beautiful diving save which sent her into the team's bench but saved the point and Laurieliz Saquicela earned extra playing time on the floor and another hit to her stat book.

Overall, the girls played great together, really cementing their teamwork and collaborative skills. Hopefully today everything will come together to help them earn their first win. Please think about coming to see our girls in action as they take on the RSD Wildcats this afternoon at 3:30.

The Lady Bisons had their season opener yester at home against Central Christian Academy.  Though it ended in a loss, it was a great game to watch, and it's clear that this team is the one you want to see this year. The girls fought through 4 sets of volleyball with several LONG volleys back and forth and some amazing (if not pretty) saves. 

Laurieliz Saquicela earned a service ace and her first ever kill in a game! Isabella Centinello-Perez and Yaindhi Garcia Agustin showed off some of their new setting skills and kept our girls busy and the other team guessing in the front row. This led to Zarielle Ormsby getting 24 hits and 5 kills and Emilylynn Spillman adding in her own 7 hits and 2 kills. JulieRaye Drabant added her own spice to the game by leading at the service line with 16 points. 

Overall, the girls hustled the whole game, and everyone contributed in some way. Unfortunately, the long volleys and taking it into a 4th set, showed our girls mental and physical exhaustion and they just couldn't fight back anymore. The game ended in a loss but anyone watching could see that the girls left knowing this was a true volleyball game and they've improved so much since last year. Please think about coming out to one of their home games and I promise you won't be disappointed!
