Cedar girls earn second-place trophy at Wakefield

Posted in:

WAKEFIELD — The Cedar Catholic Lady Trojans earned a second-place finish at last week’s always tough Wakefield Tournament

The Lady Trojans put together a 4-2 tourney record, defeating BRLD in a thriller Saturday to end the day in a three-way tie for second.

The tie between BRLD, Pierce and Cedar Catholic went in favor of the Lady Trojans who gave up the least amount of points to come out on top of the tie-breaker.

It was quite a busy week for the Cedar Catholic volleyball team. The Lady Trojans are now 7-6 overall.

“Throughout the games we played this week we really learned we need to be mentally prepared to work hard every week as we play a tough schedule,” CCHS head coach Denae Buss said. “We really stepped that up as we moved into the Wakefield tournament and defeated LCC, Ponca and BRLD.”

This week Megan Heimes made her 1,000 dig of her career in the BRLD win on the match’s second dig.

CCHS beat Wakefield 2-0 (25-11, 25-16) with Laney Kathol and Brynn Wortmann each finishing with five kills apiece, Brooklyn Kuehn served up six aces and Heimes and Makenna Noecker both had seven digs.

Kathol also totaled five total blocks and Uttecht had seven assists.

In beating LCC 2-0 (25-15, 25-14), Wortmann had six kills, Kathol had five kills and eight digs, Noecker added four kills and Heimes had four aces and seven digs.

With the 2-1 (25-18, 19-25, 25-13) win over Ponca, Wortmann had 11 kills and 11 digs, Noecker recorded seven kills, Kathol totaled five kills, Kuehn finished with five kills and four total blocks, Noecker made 12 digs, Uttecht had 13 assists and nine digs and Heimes had 20 digs.

The final win at Wakefield – a 2-1 (25-19, 20-25, 26-24) victory over BRLD – Wortmann had eight kills and 14 digs, Uttecht had four aces and 12 assists and Heimes had 20 digs.

The Wakefield losses came to Pierce 2-0 (25-18, 25-12) and Lutheran Northeast 2-0 (25-9, 25-14).

In last Tuesday’s 3-1 loss (18-25, 25-17, 25-23, 25-22) to Crofton, Brynn Wortmann had 16 kills and Laney Kathol had 10 kills and Heimes had 16 digs as Cady Uttecht distributed 23 assists.

The Lady Trojans played Norfolk Catholic on Tuesday then head to the Stanton Invitational on Saturday.
