STRASBURG — Teutopolis came calling and went back home with three volleyball victories over Windsor/Stewardson-Strasburg Tuesday evening.
The Wooden Shoes won the varsity contest 25-20, 11-25, 25-22. Kaylie Jordan led the Shoes in digs with 15, points with 14, assists with 21 and aces with two. Elie Pals led in kills with 10 and blocks with three.
Windsor/Stew-Stras was led by Brinlie Durbin with 38 assists and 19 digs, Mya Friese with 23 kills and two aces and Brooke Schumacher with one solo block and three block assists.
“We had an unusual amount of hitting errors tonight,” said WSS Coach Ronda Schlechte. “We gave them nine straight points in one rotation that should never have happened in the first set. They did battle back to just a five-point loss after being down by 11. They turned the tide in the second set and played really well.
“Set three was a thriller. Both teams fought hard the entire set. T-town did a great job covering the floor. They were pulling up a lot. Tomorrow is back to practice to clean some things up.”
Windsor/Stew-Stras dropped to 6-5 on the season.
In the junior varsity match, Teutopolis also was a winner, 25-22, 30-28. The Wooden Shoes swept with a 25-19, 25-17 win in freshman/sophomore action.
