North Nodaway continued to fall short in their effort to break in the top tier of the 275 conference, falling 17-25, 18-25, 14-25 to Nodaway Valley Thursday, but Saryn Brown was a bright spot for the Mustangs. She had 9 kills and 2 blocks that night. Jacquelyn Cline frequently set her up for her kills, getting several assists for the night.
The Mustangs dug themselves into a hole in the first match, falling behind 21-8. Sarah Chesnut rallied the troops at that point, the serving of Jacquelyn Cline put pressure on the green shirts, and a kill by Brown stopped the bleeding. They got as close as 21-13 before the Thunder finally closed it out.
The next two games were a mirror image of each other. North Nodaway would play even with Nodaway Valley through the first 20 points, only for the bottom to drop out. They led 10-9 in the second set as Lauren Herndon got a couple of kills, and Cline added a service ace. But then Nodaway Valley pulled away to get the 25-18 win. In the third set, the Mustangs fell behind 4-1 before aces by Saylor Brown and Sarah Chesnut knotted it at 8-8. Saylor Brown got a kill to make it 9-8, only for the bottom to drop out again after that.
Saryn Brown had 9 kills and two blocks. Lauren Herndon had 3 kills and 1 block. Saylor Brown had 3 kills and 1 ace. Kelsey Barcus had 1 kill. Sarah Chesnut had 2 aces.
