The San Diego Mojo just made a statement. Thursday night, they snagged their first sweep of the season against the Grand Rapids Rise — 26-24, 25-21, 25-19, at Van Andel Arena. This wasn't just a win. It was a message.
Mojo's Momentum
San Diego's got the wind at their back. Winning five of their last six matches? That's no joke. They're now 6-7 in the season standings, tying their best stretch ever. The Rise? They fell to 3-9, and have no answer for the Mojo right now.
One name you can't ignore: Monserez. The guy's been named MLV Player of the Week, and it's clear why. The Mojo have won six straight sets against the Rise, dating back to February. You could feel it coming.
Set the Tone
The first set was tight — 26-24. But the Mojo showed their grit. Set two? They took over, 25-21. By the third set, it was all but over. 25-19. The Rise had no answer.
Coach Smith couldn't stop raving about the team's performance: "This is what we train for. The guys are locked in."
Looking Ahead
Next up for the Mojo is a clash with the Columbus Fury. If they keep this momentum, expect fireworks. The Mojo are on a roll, and with Monserez leading the charge, they look unstoppable.
And from here? It’s just the beginning. San Diego's Mojo is back, and they're making sure everyone knows it.
That'll do it.
