The Pe Ell Trojans came out on the right side of a five-set thriller Thursday night, as the Trojans topped Wahkiakum 25-11, 26-24, 17-25, 26-28, 15-9.
After a tight first four sets, including two that went to extra points, the Trojans were able to prevent a reverse sweep by taking the fifth.
“The girls never let off the throttle,” Pe Ell coach Jill Engel said. “A lot of pieces that we’ve been working on really came together for us tonight. “

With the win, the Trojans (8-5, 7-2 1B CVL South) jumped Wahkiakum in the standings, as they’re now a half-game up on the Mules.
They’ve won three in a row and four of five, and they’ll look to continue rolling at Oakville on Tuesday.
