The Black Hills volleyball team didn’t get off to a great start on Thursday, but the Wolves settled in and beat Shelton in four 15-25, 25-19, 25-14, 25-23.
“I am proud of how well our team played today and how they responded after losing the first set,” Black Hills coach Kendra Dunn said. “They bounced back as a team and did a great job controlling our side.”
Piper Manning was everywhere defensively, tallying 44 digs, while Janessa Balsley did “a fantastic job in the front row” with nine kills and a .444 hitting percentage while also delivering four aces.
Lily Worthen added 18 assists along with 13 kills and four aces, Jaya Tummala logged 10 kills and three blocks, and Mila Dickey dished out 14 assists.
Black Hills (8-4, 2-3 2A EvCo) will head to Aberdeen on Tuesday, but not before competing in the Capitol City Tournament in Olympia on Saturday.
