Volleyball team knocks off league foes
By Rongi Yost
Correspondent
The Lady Outlaws contin-
ued their domination on the
court as they swept league
foes Cottage Grove (CG) and
Sutherlin last week. Sisters
posted scores of 25-17, 25-19,
and 25-23 in their win at CG
over the top-ranked Lions on
Tuesday, October 3. Two days
later, they tallied a three-set
win at home over Sutherlin.
Tuesday’s win over the
Lions saw the Outlaws at the
top of their game at the service
line: as a team they posted
15 aces. Sisters jumped out
quick in the first set and never
looked back.
Hawley Harrer led the
Outlaws with nine kills and
seven assists, followed by
Kendra Sitz who contributed
six kills. Erynn Ricker tallied
10 blocks in the match.
Two days later, the
Outlaws defeated the
Sutherlin Bulldogs in three
quick sets. It was hard for
the Bulldogs to return the
Outlaws’ serves, and time after
time they shanked the ball.
Ashlynn Cantwell had
a six-point serving run in
the first set, which put the
Outlaws on top 8-2. Sophia
Silva had a four-point serv-
ing run and Harrer recorded
a five-point run, all of which
helped the Outlaws hold the
lead the entire way.
The second set was much
the same. Cantwell started the
game with 12 straight serves,
followed by Silva, who con-
tributed a nine-point run, and
gave the Outlaws a command-
ing 21-2 advantage. The serv-
ing was so incredible that the
team didn’t even make one

full rotation.
In the third game, the
Outlaws were able to mix up
their line-up and rest some
key players. Ellie Rush started
the set with an ace and had a
four-point serving run. All
players got time on the court,
