The Badgers fought hard against Priest River on
Tuesday, but fell to this year's IML champs.
They play tonight in a loser out match against
Kellogg.
"We came out flat, but didn't give up and came
back in sets three and four with a vengeance and
beat them handily," said coach Janis Tucker, who
was named the Intermountain League's Volleyball
Coach of the Year. "We found ourselves down 8-11
and came back to a 14-12 only to lose 14-16."
Priest River defeated Bonners Ferry 25-16,
25-14, 15-25, 22-25, 16-14
Stat leaders for the Badgers;
Kills- Jasmine Hill, 13
Assists- Emma Kelly, 36
Aces- McKenzie MacDonald, 3
Digs- Malorie Stippich, 21
Blocks- Amanda Wilson, 3
Bonners Ferry defeated Timberlake Wednesday in
three sets; 25-22, 25-21, 25-22
"Once again we played a bit flat," Tucker said,
"but we kept ahead of Timberlake the entire
match."
Stat leaders:
Kills- McKenzie MacDonald 6, Desirae Minor 6,
Jasmine Hill 6
Assists Emma Kelly 25
Aces Camille Awbrey 3
Digs- Malorie Stippich 14
Blocks- Camille Awbrey 3, Jasmine Hill 3
Priest River went on to win the championship
against Kellogg in a 3-0 decision.
Desirae Minor and McKenzie MacDonald were both
named to this year's All IML Team.
The Lady Badgers play Kellogg again tonight for
the play-in berth at 6 p.m. in Rathdrum. Loser
out leaves empty handed and winner advances to
McCall for a play-in game on Saturday afternoon
with a team from Southern Idaho. |
