Eisenhower and Tidioute squared off in a Warren County volleyball clash and it was the Lady Knights that came away with a 3-0 victory, 25-15, 25-9, 25-17 on Thursday.

It was the second win of the season for Ike.

“The girls continue to improve,” said Eisenhower coach Scott Olson. “Our passing was real tight tonight and our serve-receive was good. They’re getting better and better with each match. We’re at the point where we just have to tweak things to keep getting better.”

Leading Eisenhower were Cameran Edwards (13 kills, 15 digs), Kiara Weber (7 kills, 10 digs, 10 points, 1 ace), Currie Hultman (7 kills, 18 digs), Tess Morningstar (3 kills, 2 blocks, 13 points, 6 aces) and Caroline Hishman (29 assists, 3 aces, 10 points).

The Lady Bulldogs captured the JV match, 2-1, 25-15, 13-25, 15-13.

Proctor (5 aces), Natalie Valentine (1 ace) and Hunt (1 kill) helped key the Tidioute victory.

Tops for Eisenhower were Katrina Edwards (2 kills), Destiney Nelson (1 kill) and Paige Edwards (1 kill, 9 aces).

The Lady Knights are at the Iroquois Tournament on Saturday, while Tidioute’s next action is at Cochranton on Tuesday.

KANE 3, SHEFFIELD 0

Kane topped Sheffield 6-25, 10-25 and 18-25 on Thursday.

“It was just one of those nights,” said Sheffield coach Melissa Lemay of her young team. “We didn’t communicate well and our serve-receive wasn’t as good as it was on Tuesday.”

Leading Sheffield were Annabel Sheldon (5 service points), Emily Leichtenberger (6 kills) and Megan Johnson (13 assists).

Sheffield yielded some big runs, including both a 5 and 6 point swing in the first game.

Added Lemay: “Communication is one of the most important parts of volleyball. I always tell the girls that’s one thing they can control. They can control energy, they can control serving and they can control communication.”

The JV team fell 6-25, 22-25.

They return to action on Monday, squaring off at home with county rival Eisenhower.
