Ionia Varsity Volleyball traveled to Hastings tonight for a tri against the host team and Saranac. The Bulldogs came out playing tough against Saranac to start, and after a bit of a slow down, were able to finish strong and take the win. Next they faced the host Saxons. Behind strong defensive play, the offense was able to capitalize and put away the match in 2 sets to take 1st place on the night. Londyn Brown covered a lot of court tonight on defense tallying 30 digs, while Tess Griffith added 18. At the net on defense Grace Droste and Rajalyaj Esquivel each had 2 blocks. Griffith also had a strong night on offense with 22 kills, while Esquivel and Drew Wachowski added 11 each. Mikaiah White paced the offense with 23 assists. Wachowski also led the Bulldogs from the service line with 3 aces on 20 service points with 100% efficiency. The Bulldogs move to 15-3-2 overall. Come support a great cause and cheer on the team as they return to their home court next Tuesday September 20th for the Purple Game against Portland. Great work Bulldogs!
