PURCHASE LINE, NORTHERN CAMBRIA FALL SHORT IN PIAA VOLLEYBALL TOURNEY

Both Purchase Line and Northern Cambria bowed out of the PIAA 2A volleyball tournament with first round losses. Purchase Line dropped a tense five-setter to WPIAL third-place finisher Fort Cherry. The Red Dragons took the first set, 25-17, dropped the second and third by scores of 25-22 in both, then won the fourth, 25-23 before dropping the final frame, 15-11. Fort Cherry’s Emily Pfender cranked a kill for what appeared to be the game-winner, with her team surging out onto the court, but a net violation negated the point, so Pfender had to do it again, and did.
