The Varsity Volleyball team traveled to Hastings again tonight to take on Lakewood High School in the District Finals. The girls took to the court in front of a great fan section cheering them on. The set started out with Ionia working to find their momentum, connecting on several great plays. However Lakewood was able to pull ahead and Ionia dropped the first set 17-25. The second set Lakewood got out to a quick start that Ionia was unable to overcome and the set ended 9-25. In the final set Ionia was able to get out to a lead and they continued to string together strong defensive efforts that ended with great offensive plays, but we're unable to close it out ending the match with a 20-25 third set loss.

Offensive leaders for the game were Tess Griffith with 7 kills, followed by Danika Fyan with 6. Kassidy Casillas put up 21 assists for the night. Londyn Brown and Casillas both had a strong service night and both had 2 aces. Paige Castillo led the defensive effort tonight with 15 digs while Casillas added 9 and Brown had 6. At the net Griffith had 3 blocks and Fyan had 2. The Bulldogs end their season 35-6-1. Great work ladies and congratulations on a fantastic season!
