Juda 3, Barneveld 2

JUDA - The Panthers can thank several key plays in their five-game win over the Eagles, 16-25, 25-22, 26-24, 20-25, 15-13, Thursday.

First, there was Megan Trotter's 10 consecutive service points in game two on her way to 16 service points. Later, when the Panthers trailed 11-13 in game five, Aly Pierce had the last four service points to win the game and the match. Heather Boeke capped off her 18th birthday with the match-winning kill.

But, according to Juda coach Pam Green, the biggest play came from sophomore C.J. Dunwiddie, who had a big save in game five while the Panthers were trailing.

"She came from out of nowhere and it was a great momentum builder," said Green.

With the win, the Panthers are 2-0 in the Six Rivers East and 3-3 overall. The Panthers host Albany Sept. 10.

Cambridge 3, New Glarus 2

New Glarus junior Lauren Narveson had nine assists, six aces and five kills.

New Glarus sophomore Jenna Romich had a team-high eight blocks and junior Alexa Secord had six digs.
