Mary Claire Deacy had plenty to enjoy Thursday as Mother McAuley rolled to a 25-15, 25-8 GCAC Red win over visiting Fenwick in Chicago.
Mother McAuley junior Mary Claire Deacy was in a very odd position during her latest match. For likely the first time in her varsity career, the 6-foot-1 right-side hitter sat the bench. The reason? It was senior night, and the Mighty Macs have nine of them. “I loved watching the seniors,” Deacy said afterward. “They have done so much for our team. I feel they deserved this special moment. They have been leaders. “They have taught this team how to be this team and brought this team together.
“She has been working really hard to be more of an aggressive player. Honestly, you kind of live and die by your right-side block because they block the outsides. Your right-side block is so important.” Mother McAuley's Morgan Feil serves against Fenwick during a GCAC Red match in Chicago on Thursday, Oct. 12, 2023. To that end, Deacy is one of McAuley’s leaders with 58 blocks.
