Southern Coffey County beat St. Paul 25-22, 25-11 and defeated Marmaton Valley High’s Wildcats 25-16, 25-23.

“We started slow against St. Paul but once we stopped trying to force things we settled down and played much better,” said Jeff True, Lady Titan head coach. “We looked good at times against Marmaton Valley but struggled with our passing accuracy.”

Sarah Webb led the Lady Titan net attack with 19 kills and six blocks for the night. Breanna Isch put down eight kills and made six blocks.

Amanda Sherwood was credited with 16 set assists and Martyna Hegwald had 11 assists. Chenae Newkirk came up with nine digs and Sherwood had five digs.

Humboldt High’s Lady Cubs split matches at Cherrvyale Tuesday. They lost to host Cherryvale in three sets and beat Altoona-Midway.

“We did not pass the ball well in the last two sets (against Cherryvale), so we couldn’t get our offense going,” said Stephanie Splechter, Humboldt head coach.

Cherryvale beat Humboldt 23-25, 25-12, 25-19. Anna Setter made 10 set assists for the Lady Cubs while Kayle Riebel had five kills and two blocks at the net.
