“We came to win, and that’s what we did,” Ewert expressed. They attained perfect control of the match through great collaboration in serving and passing. “We had a couple spurts where our serves struggled, but we stayed aggressive and forced them out of system a lot. When they’re out of system, we’ve got a good block and defense team, and we are able to get a lot of break points and pull away,” the athlete added. This was the team’s strategic move.
