Katherine Bennorth (Wanaque, NJ) led the host team with 10 kills, while teammates Sara Zepkowski (Owego) and Melissa Carden (Vestal) contributed 9 kills each. Carden also led the team in blocks with 4 total for the match. Macey Gibson (Owego) put up 20 digs and Mackenzie Struble (Owego) had a great game with a total of 42 assists, 5 kills and 3 aces.
