Outlaws volleyball bests Cottage Grove

The Lady Outlaws volleyball team continued their dominance in Sky-Em play, logging a sweep over the Lions at Cottage Grove on Tuesday, September 29.

Sisters took down Cottage Grove with scores of 25-10, 25-17, and 25-16. Sisters played a very good match, and came out with strength and passion. The Outlaws did falter a bit in the second set, but managed to pull ahead for the win. In the third set, Sisters jumped out with a good lead, and brought in the entire bench to finish the set.

The Outlaws were able to try out Cassidy Ling-Scott at the setter position, and she did a great job.

"Cassidy was a little nervous going in there on the third set, but once she got on the court she played like she had been there the whole match," said Coach Jason Myhre.

Sisters had a solid serving performance all around, and the placement was right where Coach Brad Bulloch called. Coach Cris Converse was back with the team, and helped keep the squad focused as they came off the bench.

"Each win is a real team effort with all the coaches and players getting in sync," said Myhre.

Allie Spear recorded 11 kills, nine digs, and had five aces in the match. Hawley Harrer posted 12 kills, four digs, and dished out nine assists.

Alex Hartford had 17 assists and six digs, Jessie Brigham had 14 digs, and Brooke Knirk added five kills.

Sisters was to play at home against Sutherlin on Thursday, October 1, but due to the shooting at Umpqua Community College the match was canceled and rescheduled for Wednesday, October 7, at home in Sisters. The Outlaws will play at Sweet Home on Thursday, October 8.
