The Turkey Valley volleyball team swept Clayton Ridge at home last week Tuesday by scores of 25-21, 25-23 and 25-13.
That earned the Trojans their second win of the season in the conference. TV dropped its first league tilt later that week on Thursday at North Fayette Valley – 25-23, 25-23 and 25-18.
The Trojans co-head coach Tammy Vrzak – along with Ashley Walz – was happy with how the Trojans played in the win over CR.
“The games were close, but the girls kept their composure and won in three,” said Vrzak.
Vrzak also thought her team came to play against NFV, but they came up short in the opening games.
“The score doesn’t necessarily show it, but the girls played well. They are resilient to the changes we are making within the team, which shows,” said Vrzak.
TV (6-10, 2-1) competed in the Waukon Invite this past Saturday and topped MFL MarMac for the second time this year this fall by a score of 21-6 and 21-16. The host Indians defeated TV, 21-17 and 21-16. Crestwood turned back the Trojans, 21-12 and 21-15 and Riceville pulled away from TV for a sweep, 21-15 and 21-19.
“The girls went 50/50 for the day. Their serving was fantastic, with Alexis Elsbernd’s many aces. Morgan Vsetecka was a very versatile player for us, having to go from libero to a regular player during a game and the last game,” Vrzak added.
TV senior middle Kinsey Reicks led the team in kills (8) against NFV. Layni Schuchhardt, a senior, posted 13 kills against CR and senior Alexis Elsbernd came up with 26 digs versus the Eagles. Vsetecka, a senior, was the top digs leader against NFV with 24.
The Trojans’ Addison Steinlage, a junior for the Trojans, amassed 46 assists in the two league contests.
