- 0:16brought to you by Everlett. The Coalers City volleyball team played solid
- 0:21from start to finish in Thursday night's Illinois Central Eight Conference match
- 0:25at Popsdale Gymnasium against host Streeter. Throughout the 25-9-2514
- 0:31victory, the Kohlers recorded 19 kills and 11 aces, while committing just
- 0:37two service errors and a single hitting error. I thought we did
- 0:41a great job with our serves. Coal City. June junior middle hitter
- 0:45Maggie Carlson said. We were staying aggressive and also hitting our spots.
- 0:50It didn't seem like we missed hardly any serves, and our hitting
- 0:53was pretty good too. The win, its fourth in a row, lifted
- 0:57Cole City's record to 16-10 overall and 7-2 in league play. The
- 1:01Bulldogs fell to September 3-12 and 4-5. Cole City also defeated Streeter
- 1:07in a 3-set match at home on September 3. I just think
- 1:10there wasn't really any part of our game where we didn't play
- 1:12well, Carlson said. We are playing with a lot of confidence right
- 1:17now. Cole City jumped to leads of 9 2 and 14 4
- 1:21behind Service Spurts by Avery Hodgin and Darcy Laddoz. A pair of
- 1:25aces by Ashlyn Siren in between a kill by Leah Aldridge made
- 1:28it 186. The visitors closed out the set with Aldridge and Liv
- 1:32Walichek recording Aces, A Block by Lily Gerish, and Kills from Carlson
- 1:37and Laddoz. We really stepped up our game tonight, Carlson said. I
- 1:41thought our defense tonight was phenomenal and our back row play was
- 1:45really good. We talk all the time about having trust in each
- 1:48other and I think tonight we just trusted that when the ball
- 1:51came to our our side of the net, we were going to
- 1:53get it. In the second set, an ace by Avery Mail and
- 1:57kills from Lattus and Leyland Walker put the Kohlers up 7-2. Streeter
- 2:02closed the gap with winning swings from Avery Gribbon and Malaya Zavada.
- 2:06Consecutive aces by Lattice quickly gave the momentum back to the Kohlers
- 2:11as they scored twelve of the next eighteen points to lead twenty
- 2:14eleven. Two kills by Aldridge and another by Gerish helped finish off
- 2:18the match. Coal City was led by seven kills each from Ladas
- 2:22and Aldridge. Ladas had three aces, while Hajin, Siron, and Mail posted
- 2:26two each. Siron also finished with 17 assists. Ashlyn worked so hard
- 2:31in practices, away from practice and in matches, Carlson said. Tonight she
- 2:36was spot on with her sets. As a hitter, when our setter
- 2:39puts the ball where you want it, it's just so much easier
- 2:42to swing where you want to. Kinsley Sweden led Streeter with 5
- 2:47kills while Gribin and Sophia Snow each registered 3 kills. There really
- 2:51isn't much I can say, Streeter Coach Julie Gabbehart said. We were
- 2:56coming off of playing really well against and staying with undefeated Ice
- 2:59Conference leader Mantino and nineteen win LaSalle Peru, and had a nice
- 3:04win on Tuesday at Reed Custer. Tonight we got outplayed in every
- 3:09facet of volleyball tonight. Coal City just outserved us, outpassed us, outhit
- 3:13us, and outserved us. It's just as simple as that. Streeter is
- 3:18back in action on Monday hosting Hersher. Coal City is off until
- 3:21Tuesday when it entertains Reed Custer.
