The Ionia Girls Freshmen team played one of their best games yet at home Thursday night against Pewamo-Westphalia winning 25-18, and 25-17.  The Bulldogs were focused from the first serve and worked incredibly hard tonight as a team.  "I am incredibly proud of the amount of growth they have made so far this year," said Coach Amy Frias.  "They were truly exciting to watch tonight, every girl contributed to the win."

Tonight Ionia's passing in the back court was led by Ella Bouwhuis, Miah Wittenbach, and Ava Bowen.  Without their hustle and movement to the ball the rest of the team would not have been able to get the offense going.  Skye Currigan, Jordyn Ciganick, and Brooklyn Nash all contributed 2 kills for the Bulldogs.  Erin Steffen put up a block and played aggressively at the net and served up three aces.  Miah Wittenbach had 4 aces, while Kenadie McCoy had 3, and Ava Bowen contributed another 2.

The Bulldogs are 8-4 for the season.  They will play next on Tuesday at Home against Charlotte.
