The Madera Coyotes took advantage of a young Bullard-Fresno Knights girls volleyball team to record a three-set sweep in County\/Metro Athletic Conference action.<\/p>

The Coyotes had to bounce back from a subpar 25-22 win in the first set to record a 25-15 win in the second and a 25-17 in the third for Tuesday\u2019s victory.<\/p>

\u201cA league win is always good,\u201d head coach Meghan Haas said. \u201cWe made a ton of errors serving and attacking in the first set. I told the girls we were lucky they missed as many serves as they did in the first set or we might not have won.\u201d<\/p>

Isabella Sauceda led the Coyotes with 15 kills. Brianna Guerrero added 10 while the Coyotes amassed 32 kills in the three sets.<\/p>

\u201cEven in the last match, we had a lot of people who contributed,\u201d Haas said. \u201cBella is going to get tired. She\u2019s going to get a lot of sets. Brianna stepped up and did a good job tonight.\u201d<\/p>

The Knights committed numerous errors, including nine missed serves to allow Madera to take control of the match after a tough first set.<\/p>

\u201cVolleyball is a game of momentum,\u201d Haas said. \u201cOnce we settled down, we were in control, pretty much.\u201d<\/p>

The Knights jumped out to a 6-4 lead and kept it at 8-6 before a service error. Saucedo served up three straight points, including getting a back row kill and a tip kill from Guerrero for a 10-8 lead.<\/p>

After another Bullard missed serve, Jade Davie and Guerrero put down kills for a 13-9 lead. An Alizae Vasquez kill opened the lead to five and a Mariyah Alvarez ace gave the Coyotes a 19-14 lead.<\/p>

The Knights cut the lead down to two after a kill for side out. A Saucedo kill gave the Coyote set point, leading 24-21. However a missed serve gave the Knights a chance to get back in the set. However, Vasquez put down her second kill of the set for a 25-22 victory.<\/p>

After Bullard jumped out to a 4-1 lead, the Coyotes scored five straight points to take an 8-6 lead in the second set.<\/p>

After a Kaci Gonzalez side out kill, Saucedo served up four more points while adding another kill. Guerrero put down two in the run for a 13-8 lead.<\/p>

Sofia Perez served up an ace in a five-point run. Guerrero had two kills, including the side out kill for a 19-8 Madera lead.<\/p>

Guerrero added another kill for a 21-9 lead.<\/p>

However, Bullard came back with three aces for six straight points to cut the Madera lead to six before a Davie bump kill.<\/p>

With Guerrero serving, Saucedo put down a kill for a 23-15 lead. Bullard then hit out of bounds on back-to-back plays to give the Coyotes a 25-15 win.<\/p>

In the third set, two Saucedo aces and an Alvarez ace opened a 5-1 lead. A Perez ace and a Guerrero kill off the block opened the lead to seven.<\/p>

Guerrero served up an ace while the Coyotes took a 14-4 lead. Despite side out kills from Davie and Saucedo, Bullard chipped away at the lead, eventually taking it down to four at 20-16.<\/p>

After Bullard hit out of bounds, Saucedo put down a kill to get the lead back to six. After a trade in side outs, Davie served up a point for match point and ended the match with an ace for a 25-17 victory.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
