Crestview spoils Bucyrus' district debut, march to 1st final since '18
NORWALK - Crestview coach Kenedi Goon expected a little more out of her team against Bucyrus in Tuesday's Division VI district semifinal at Norwalk High School. "I felt like the whole pace of the first two sets wasn't quite Crestview volleyball," Goon said. "It felt a little slow to me, and maybe that's just my high expectations of the team." The No. 3 Cougars deserve high expectations coming off an 17-win regular season they lived up to those by taking down four-seed Bucyrus in four sets 25-16, 25-19, 22-25, 25-19. DIVISION III: Ashland shakes off slow start against Columbian in district semifinal "Dropped the third set, which we didn't want to, but we were able to bounce back and that's all that matters," Goon said. "I'm proud of them for pushing their tempo, pushing the pace, and stepping up to get it done." That hastened style of play forced Bucyrus into making several unforced errors on the night, most of the time at costly moments either thwarting a momentum-building run for the Redmen or extending a run for the Cougars. "We just seemed to be lagging tonight," Bucyrus coach Amber Christy said. "Don't get me wrong, Crestview is a good

Two of the Northern Buckeye Conference’s best volleyball programs advanced to OHSAA Division IV district final appearances, as Eastwood downed Otsego in straight sets, and Lake swept Bryan at Perrysburg High School on Tuesday. The Eagles (16-7) opened play against the NBC foe Knights (12-12), commanding the contest from start to finish behind 15 kills from senior Mack Miller, and an all-around dominant effort. Eastwood only trailed twice on its way to the win (25-14, 25-12, 25-13). Both times came early in the second set. “Our gameplan was to run our middles to make sure they weren’t committing to just our pin hitters, and our goal was to serve really aggressively,” Eastwood coach Sarah Frank said. “Otsego is a solid team, a high-energy team, and so we knew we had to execute offensively and score in every way we could from offense to serving too.” In service, Miller led the Eagles with four aces. The team finished with eight as a whole. Miller also had a team-leading 15 digs. Sophomore Olivia Riter contributed 41 assists, as Jaedyn Richards (eight kills), Vanessa Evans (seven kills), and Maya Schmeltz (seven kills) added to the attacking effort.
