Lady Falcons Win 'Battle Of Birds' On Home Court Monday

The Elkhorn Valley volleyball team picked up another win on the home court Monday when they hosted O'Neill.

The Lady Falcons defeated the Lady Eagles in four sets, 25-21, 25-19, 24-26 and 25-21. 

"The girls really started off with two really solid sets," EV Coach Emily Vaughn said. "They came out focused and got right down to business. In the third set, we lost some momentum due to missed serves early, and then rallied from a 10-18 deficit to tie it at 24. The final set the score got a lot closer then it needed too. The Lady Falcons had a 21-10 lead and let their guard down, which allowed O'Neill to close the gap considerably!"

Elkhorn Valley, 5-14, will travel to Pierce on Thursday for a triangular with Pierce and Madison. The Lady Falcons will play at 5 p.m. and 6 p.m.
