Saintes Split at Harlan

Posted: 09/19/2006 - by

HARLAN - Class 3A No. 12 Harlan added a pair of victories by dropping Thomas Jefferson 21-9, 21-14 and St. Albert with a pair of 21-18 matches Monday night in prep volleyball action.

The Saintes won the night's other match over TJ 21-13, 21-17.

"It was good to put two wins together," Harlan coach Julie DuVal said.

Stephanie Connell doled out 11 assists against T.J. and 10 against St. Albert. Amber Leinen had four kills against the Saintes, while McKenzie Moore finished the night with 10 kills.

"We were really aggressive attacking, especially in the middle," Duval said of the match against St. Albert.

After a strong 5-0 mark this weekend, St. Albert continued its good play of late.

"We just didn't finish (against Harlan)," St. Albert coach Angie Lantz said. "We played with them, but we didn't play well enough to win."

Morgan Wickersham led the Saintes with 10 kills on the day, while Natalie Andrews had 22 assists.

Freshman Becca Gradoville added eight kills and seven digs in the match, while Caitlin Finn had 13 digs.

Thomas Jefferson's statistics were not available at press time.

The Cyclones head to Carroll to take on Hawkeye 10 Conference foe Kuemper Catholic tonight. St. Albert has its first of two home matches this season Thursday against Wahoo Neumann. Thomas Jefferson isn't scheduled to take the court against until Sept. 30 when it hosts the T.J. Invitational.
