Stanwood’s volleyball team picked up its first conference wins last Monday evening against Oak Harbor. The Lady Sparts used excellent team play on the home court to overwhelm the Wildcats 25-19, 25-16, 25-15.
Two nights later the local high netters lost a marathon match to Everett’s Cascade 3-2 to go 1-3 in league play, 5-5 overall.
Against the Harborites sophomore Kaci Jones accumulated nine kills and provided 12 assists to her teammates. Sarah Titus led the defense with 12 digs.
In the 25-18, 14-25, 25- 9, 24-26, 15-6 loss to the Bruins, the Sparts’ Kelsey Kanehen paced the Stanwood offensive effort with 11 kills. Jones had six service aces while Titus had 19 digs for the evening.
