North Nodaway got off to a rough start against the always brutal Highway 275 Conference, dropping their first six games and only winning one set in the process. But on Monday, they invaded archrival Bedford and stunned the Bulldogs, winning 21-12, 20-22, 15-10 as they found their second wind.
With Mound City coming in at 2-3, the Mustangs had a chance to capitalize on their first win, but reverted to form, falling 5-25, 7-25, and 14-25 in straight sets.
All hell broke loose as Mound City completely outclassed North Nodaway in the first two sets; they were bigger and quicker. But North Nodaway started doing better in the third set. Lauren Herndon was a bright spot, getting several good hits in that set, getting good sets from Lily Blaine and Lacy Riley. But when she rotated to the back row, Mound City resumed their demolition, closing out the match. The challenge for the Mustangs will be to find another hitter so that they can match up with the other teams of the conference.
Lauren Herndon had 12 kills, while Kila Miller and Addalea Barcus had 1 each. Barcus had 1 ace, while Miller, Riley, and Amy Richards each had 1 block.
