Loggers pick up first C2BL victory over Riverhawks

Posted

Behind a double-double by Emalie Jacoby, the Loggers ended a small two-game losing streak with an emphatic 25-12, 25-9, 25-21 sweep over the Riverhawks in a Tuesday night C2BL showdown.

It has been nearly a month since Onalaska (7-3, 1-1 C2BL) played a match to go at least four sets. It faced little resistance in the opening two sets before having to finish off the sweep in a nip-and-tuck third.

“We lost our intensity, but got it together and got the win,” Loggers head coach Susan Gordon said. “Everyone is becoming more disciplined in positions both offensively and defensively.”

Jacoby finished with 16 kills and 12 digs plus four aces for Onalaska. Braelyn Babb dished out 19 assists while Capri McGraw and Aliana Morales registered 11 and 10 digs, respectively. The Loggers head to Toutle Lake on Thursday.

Toledo (4-6, 1-1) was led by Ellie Fallon who recorded eight kills and 10 digs while setter Sidney Kruger distributed 15 assists and had eight digs in the back row. The Riverhawks make the trek to battle Rainier on Thursday.

“We just couldn’t get our feet moving tonight, so most of our offense was out of system,” Toledo head coach Kelli Larson said.
