T-town Downs St. A, EHS Falls, Area Volleyball Roundup

Teutopolis High School rolled into the Enlow Center and handed Effingham St. Anthony a volleyball loss Thursday evening.

The Bulldogs claimed the varsity opener 26-24 but T-town rallied for 25-16, 25-19 scores and the win.

The Wooden Shoes were led by Ciara Repking with 13 digs and 10 kills, Hannah Rodgers with 10 points and 20 assists. Erica Michels with 17 kills and 10 points, Emily Konkel and Eve Walker with two blocks each. T-town improves to 13-10.

"It's been a brutal stretch of games since the Charleston Tournament," said T-town Coach Tim Mills. "Injuries have caused us to shift players and change rotations. We're averaging 14 unforced errors per set over the past four matches. That's 136 errors over a span of 10 sets. Most of those have been hitting errors. As a team we've hit .109 during those four matches. We only have one match next week. We're hoping to be healthy by the time we see Newton and Altamont at home."

The Bulldogs were led by Ada Rozene with nine kills while Kyra Swearingen had 16 assists. Rileigh Haarmann led in points with 11.

T-town won the junior varsity match, 25-10, 25-20. The two schools split freshman contests. T-town won 25-15 and St. Anthony won 25-21.
