Drummond movin’ on up after sweep of Seeley Swan
DRUMMOND – It was a match up between two of District 13C’s top teams. When all was said and done, the Lady Trojans proved they were the better squad.
Drummond swept previously undefeated Seeley Swan Thursday night 25-22, 25-14, and 25-19 to advance to 4-1 in the standings while the Lady Blackhawks fell to 3-1.
It was nip and tuck all the way in the opening set, with the two teams playing to a 22-22 tie. But the locals strung together three straight points secure the victory. The second set win was easier, and Drummond closed out the match in the third.
“This was a big game for us,” said junior hitter Kimber Parsons of the match. “I think we played pretty good … been a little bit prettier, but we still got it.”
When asked about the road ahead with the lower-ranked teams left on their district schedule, Parsons added, “We’ve just got to keep working hard in practice, stay competitive in practice, and stay aggressive against these other teams.”
Drummond will see some good teams Saturday when they, along with Granite, participate in the Manhattan Christian Tournament.
