ROCKSPRINGS, Ohio — It doesn’t get much more decisive than that.
The Nelsonville-York volleyball team never trailed in any of the three games on Thursday night, as the Lady Buckeyes took a consecutive victories of 25-10, 25-15 and 25-9 over Tri-Valley Conference Ohio Division host Meigs.
The Lady Marauders (1-5, 0-3 TVC Ohio) and Lady Buckeyes (4-5) were tied just three times in the match, all coming in the second game.
Meigs service attack was led by Alliyah Pullins with five points and Devyn Oliver with two. Maddie Hendricks, Kassidy Betzing, Jordan Roush and Maddie Fields each had one service point for the Maroon and Gold.
Betzing led MHS at the net with seven kills and two blocks. Pullins and Paige Denney each had three kills in the setback, Oliver added two kills and a team-best nine assists, while Morgan Lodwick had one kill and Devin Humphreys had one block. Roush had four digs to lead the Maroon and Gold defensively.
MHS will look to avenge this loss on October 4, in Athens County.
After a non-conference tri-match with Belpre, at Southern on Saturday, The Lady Marauders will resume league play on Tuesday, at Alexander.
