EUREKA — Southern Coffey County High’s volleyball team split its first two matches of the season Thursday.
The Lady Titans come back in dramatic fashion to defeat the host Tornadoes in three sets, 12-25, 34-32, 25-17, before falling to Olpe, 25-18, 25-11, in the triangular meet.
“Our serving was a plus for us, especially for the first games of the season,” head coach Jeff True said, noting SCC shot a sterling 91 percent (85 for 93) on the day.
Breanna Isch racked up 11 kills with three blocks. Shenae Newkirk and Amanda Sherwood each recorded nine assists. Connie Lyda and Amber Emmons added five and four digs, respectively.
“I was pleased with our play for our first night, but we have a lot of work to do, especially with our passing,” True said. “The girls showed a lot of heart and composure against Eureka.”
Southern Coffey County travels to St. Paul Tuesday in a quadrangular meet, with Pleasanton and Crest also involved.
