Iola High’s varsity volleyball team won both of its matches on senior night Tuesday. THE FRESHMAN FILLIES also won both of their matches. Iola beat Prairie View 25-9 and 25-10. The team also beat Anderson County 25-9 and 25-19.

Emma Piazza had three aces, four kills and nine assists. Kyra Moore had three aces, three kills and five assists. Mikaela Platt had one kill. Sydney Wade had one kill and an assist. Katie Shields had two kills. Toni Macha had a kill.
Iola then beat Anderson County, 25-16 and 25-18.
“This was a huge win for us because Anderson County is the only team we haven’t played in league this season,” coach Emily Sigg said. “You never know how they are going to be.”
Haar came away with five kills. Driskel had two aces and 13 kills. Piazza had three aces, three kills and 13 assists. Moore had two kills and 11 assists. Platt had two kills and an ace. Wade, Macha and Shields each had a kill.
“I think we are getting to the point where we set our goals and we aren’t going to let anything stop us,” Sigg said. “And that’s exactly where we should be. If you were at the matches last night, you could feel that.”
Colbi Riley, Karly McGuffin, Katie Bauer and Chloe Gardner were leading servers. Riley, McGuffin and Bauer also led in kills. Madi Carlin led in assists. Gardner, Carly Cescon and Sophie Whitney led in digs.
“This was probably the best that we have played as a team all season,” coach Jeff Fehr said. “We played aggressive, served well and kept the tempo in our favor.”
