Pioneer Volleyball loses to Longhorns in 3, but plays strong in Cascade

Coach McKenney, said, “I am super proud of our JV team for beating Fort

Benton in 4 sets. They have been doing really well this season. They

lost a tough battle to Chinook in 5 sets last week, but then beat

North Star in 4 sets the next night. It is fun seeing their progress!”

Fort Benton (20-25, 14-25, 13-25)

“Unfortunately, our Varsity did not show up to play

against Fort Benton. We were making errors that we should not have

been making. Typically, we are a strong serving team, but we did not

showcase that at all. We couldn’t gain the momentum we needed, in

order to win. I look forward to seeing Fort Benton again on October

6th on our home court!”

Coach McKenney commented later, “We had a 2 day tournament in Cascade on Friday and

Saturday. Overall, I was happy with our performance. We had the

opportunity to play 8 different teams, which was awesome. Each match

was only 2 sets to 21 points. Some of the highlights included beating

CJI in both sets, winning a set against Belt, and winning the overall

split against DGS, GFCC and Cascade “A.” There was a lot of excitement

throughout the weekend and I really think we improved.”
