Marion Middle School seventh grade volleyball team started the night off with a 26-24 victory against Ellinwood, but dropped the next two matches, 25-10 and 16-14.

The team dropped to 2-2, but head coach Shannon Cooper was still happy with the team.

"We had really good servers who took control and that's what won it for us," Cooper said.

The eighth grade team lost both matches, 25-14, 25-18 to fall to 2-2.

After the two losses, both seventh and eighth grade mixed team notched victories.

The seventh grade team won in two games, 25-21, 25-19, and the eighth grade team won 25-11, 25-9.

"It was nice to end the evening with a win," Cooper said.

Shanna Kline and Tiffany Christensen led the seventh graders with eight good serves, and Alex Cain and Ashley Ratzloff carried the eighth graders with nine serves each.
