Lady Wolfpack Makes Clean Sweep Over Creighton Thursday

The Lady Wolfpack made a clean sweep over the Lady Bulldogs in Creighton last night, winning the C team, JV and Varsity games. 

In varsity action, Elgin Public/Pope John took Creighton into extra points to win the first set, 27-25. The second set came a bit easier at 25-18.

Creighton edged out EPPJ, 22-25, in the third, but the Lady Pack came back swinging in the fourth set for a convincing 25-14 victory.

"What a great team effort against a good team!" Coach Tina Thiele-Blecher said after the game. 

This big win comes after an impressive Howells Tournament on Saturday in which EPPJ came home champions. Howells/Dodge, Burwell and Shelby/Rising City were all downed by the Lady Wolfpack in tournament play.

The EPPJ varsity (7-2) will travel to Central City next Thursday, Sept. 25, to compete in a triangular hosted by Nebraska Christian. The junior high and JV teams will be in action on Monday when they travel to O'Neill to take on St. Mary's.
