MADISON - Albany opened its volleyball season by going 4-6 at the Abundant Life Invitational on Thursday.
The Comets won the first game of the year, 25-21, before falling 17-25, 18-25 over the next two games.
Cambria-Friesland swept Albany 25-21, 25-17, 25-18 in the second match, but the Comets bounced back against Poynette, winning two of three, 25-10, 25-23, 12-25.
"We learned a lot about ourselves," coach Connie Wunschel said. "We were without Kirstie Kauk, who's been sick. So we were like a JV group playing against the varsity. I told the girls they are quick, they just have to work on the little things."
One player that stood out to Wunschel was Julia Farley, who moved from setter to outside hitter.
"Julia was excellent on the outside," Wunschel said.
