Lady Badgers end season

October 28, 2013
Districts ended for the Lady Badger volleyball team on Thursday in Rathdrum against Kellogg in a loser out game. The Badgers sadly lost in three sets: 14-25, 18-25 and 22-25.

"We played somewhat flat and had a difficult time creating any momentum," coach Janis Tucker said. "The loss was a disappointment after a well played match against Priest River on Tuesday narrowly losing in five sets and a 3-0 victory against Timberlake on Wednesday night. Hopefully, the girls don't focus on the final outcome, but the 'process' of the entire season. I am so proud of this team and how far they have come this season. We came so close to both the first and second place teams this season, had it been another day, we maybe extending our season another week instead of Priest River or Kellogg.

"State volleyball is held in Coeur d'Alene November 1-2, and as much as we all hate losing to teams from our league, we wish both teams luck. I always cheer for the Intermountain league teams, mainly due to the fact that if they perform well at state, that says speaks highly of our league."

Stat leaders in the final game were:
Kills - Camille Awbrey and Jasmine Hill, both with 6.
Assists - Emma Kelly, 18.
Blocks - McKenzie MacDonald and Amanda Wilson, 2 each.
Aces - McKenzie MacDonald, 1.
Digs - Malorie Stippich, 8.
