ON THE ATTACK — Sophia Fischer of NRHEG spikes while teammates Gretchen Ramaker, Abby Wacholz and Marnie Wagner look on against Medford.
Prior to last week, the NRHEG High School volleyball team was looking very good. But that was not the case as the Panthers hosted Medford Thursday, Sept. 17.
The visitors swept, winning 25-14, 25-12, 25-10. It dropped NRHEG to 4-2 overall and 1-1 in conference play.
“We struggled across the board tonight,” said coach Onika Peterson. “Our passing was off, which caused our setters to scramble.”
Which caused all sorts of problems for the Panthers, who never could get on track.
“Tonight was one of those nights nothing seemed to be going our way,” said Peterson, who’s confident her squad will bounce back.
