It’s a learning process.
Coupeville High School grad Chelsea Prescott and her new teammates at Medaille College picked up some valuable experience this weekend playing at the University of Rochester Invitational.
Two losses in as many matches Saturday left the Mavericks at 0-3 on the young season, but there’s still 20 more tilts to play during the regular season.
The first of those arrives Tuesday, Sept. 7, when Medaille hosts Wells College, which sits at 1-4 on the year.
Saturday, the Mavericks fell 25-12, 25-19, 25-17 to Smith College, then went down 25-15, 25-15, 25-16 to the University of Rochester.
Prescott delivered six kills and six digs in the opener, then tossed in two kills and five digs in the finale.
Through three matches, the former Wolf has played in all nine sets, racking up 14 kills and 17 digs.
Prescott was impeccable on service return against Smith College, converting all 15 of her opportunities without picking up a single error.
Before graduating with Coupeville’s Class of 2021, Prescott starred for the Wolves in volleyball, basketball, and baseball.
She helped lead both the spikers and diamond dandies to the state tournament during her run in Cow Town, and was the CHS Female Athlete of the Year for her senior season.
