  by Everlett. St. Bede showed up ready for Tuesday's Tri-County Conference
• 0:22
  volleyball match with Putnam County seizing control of the contest early and
• 0:26
  never letting up in a 2517, uh 2519 victory over the Panthers.
• 0:32
  The Bruins, September 2nd, 1341 Tri-County led nearly the entire evening as
• 0:38
  they posted their fourth straight win over Putnam County and prevailed for
• 0:42
  the fourth time in five matches. It's homecoming week, so They were
• 0:46
  really excited to pull off a win, St. Bede head coach Nicole
• 0:50
  Trenka said. Today our theme was really just to focus on our
• 0:54
  energy and our effort on our side of the court and they
• 0:56
  showed up very well. The wanted that win and to show what
• 0:59
  we've been working on, so I'm really proud of them. The Panthers,
• 1:03
  May 2nd-12, 4-1, managed to score four of the match's first five
• 1:08
  points, getting a pair of kills from Maya Richardson and taking advantage
• 1:11
  of St. Bede errors at the net. The Bruins rallied on the
• 1:15
  serve of Hope Ant Kojak to take the lead for the first
• 1:18
  time, scoring seven unanswered points to pull in front 10-5 and prompt
• 1:22
  a Putnam County timeout. I think we just came out with a
• 1:26
  lot of energy and really played together, said St. Biddle blocker Kija
• 1:30
  Lucas. It's been a little rough recently, but we really wanted it
• 1:34
  today Holding a 1916 advantage, St. Bede strung together four straight points
• 1:39
  as Nella Pothoff, Hannah Washkowiak, and Finley Roo registered kills before Bentleia
• 1:45
  Ernat closed out the first set win with the Bruins third service
• 1:49
  ace of the night. The hosts were quick out of the gate
• 1:52
  as the second set opened, as Hannah Heiberger came through with two
• 1:56
  aces in a four-point run unserved to give St. Bede a 4-1
• 2:00
  edge. Pottoff put down a pair of kills to keep the Bruins
• 2:04
  in front before taking over serving duties for a 7-0 scoring run
• 2:08
  that included back-to-back blocks by Ruin Wishkoyak, extending St. Bede's lead to
• 2:12
  16-5. Our middles are always very aggressive, Tranka said. They read the
• 2:17
  ball well and they move Bell. One thing we always tell them
• 2:21
  to do is just to stay aggressive at the net and they
• 2:23
  do that’s will I was excited for their performance. Two consecutive aces
• 2:28
  by Avery Grasser helped ignite a brief Putnam County rally, though the
• 2:32
  Panthers never came within five points the rest of the way. It
• 2:37
  just wasn't our night, said Putnam County Head Coach Amy Bell. We
• 2:41
  had a hard time with serve receiving, and we started to go
• 2:44
  too late. We just struggled with some mental mistakes, and that's something
• 2:48
  we will learn and work through. Pothoff paced St. Bede with seven
• 2:53
  kills, while Lucas finished with six and Ernatt totaled ten digs. Richardson
• 2:57
  paced Putnam County with 7 kills while sharing the team lead in
• 3:01
  digs with Sarah Wiesbrock as each finished with seven. Kennedy Hillacker also
• 3:05
  served a pair of aces for the Panthers. Both teams are idle
• 3:09
  until they resume Tri-County play October 6th, as St. Bede travels to
• 3:13
  face Low Point Washburn and Putnam County hosts Seneca.
