Parkway Panthers in four games, 20-25, 19-25, 25-20 and 18-25.\u00a0 After losing the first two games of the match, the Knights stepped up their game and took the third game from the Panthers.\u00a0 But Parkway was just too much for the Knights in the fourth and deciding game of the match.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe trailed most of the fourth game and were forced to call timeouts at 4-9 and 16-20,\u201d Coach Tammy Gregory said. \u201cAgainst a team of that caliber, you can&#8217;t give up that many points and expect to get back in the game.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy that time of the match, I felt we were wasting most of our energy just trying to get back in the game,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>Coach Gregory noted that the Knights did not lose to an average team, by any means.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cParkway is a solid team with a lot of weapons,\u201d she said. \u201cBalls that I didn&#8217;t expect to come back did because of their hustle and extra effort they put into every play.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Crestview coach said she enjoys competing against teams at that level, adding that the Knights need to use this as a learning experience to better themselves.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI commend the girls for the effort they put forth and by not giving up after losing two games straight,\u201d Coach Gregory added.<\/p>\n<p>Crestview will now focus on its next match, the Knights\u2019 Northwest Conference
