Wednesday, September 25, 2019 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon Outlaws s earn championship honor honors 13 Entertainment & Events By Rongi Yost Correspondent The annual Sisters I n v i t a t i o n a l Vo l l e y b a l l Tournament has become one of the top tournaments in the state at the 4A level, and this year grew to a 20-team tour- ney. Teams traveled from all over the state to attend the event, and included thirteen of the top 20 teams in the state. The Lady Outlaws played at the top of their game, and at the end of the day earned top honors for the tourney. Sisters didn9t drop one set the entire day, and defeated league foe Philomath in the championship match. Sisters cruised through pool play with wins over North Valley, Estacada and Siuslaw. They finished as the 2nd seed team, losing out on the No. 1 seed to Philomath by just one point. In the first round of bracket play, the Outlaws took on Hidden Valley, the team they defeated in the first round of the state playoffs last year. Sisters never trailed in the match and defeated the Mustangs 25-16, 25-13. After their quarterfinal win, the Outlaws faced a tough Cottage Grove squad, who fin- ished second at the state tour- ney last year. Sisters played strong at the net and had eight blocks, which shut down the Lions offense. The Outlaws9 tough serves kept the Lions from finding any sort of offen- sive rhythm and Sisters won the semi-final, 25-15, 25-16. In the championship game, Sisters found themselves up against Philomath, a league foe they had just swept on the road two days earlier. The Outlaws hit the floor with confidence, poise, and team chemistry, and were ready to prove they were the bet- ter team. Sisters jumped to a quick lead and never trailed in the match. Greta Davis9 SEPT 25 WED PHOTO BY JERRY BALDOCK Greta Davis goes up for the kill in Outlaws tournament action. 11 kills and Sophie Silva9s 10 provided strong offense and net play in the 25-19, 25-13 win that shut down the Warriors.
