The Lady Bruins volleyball team celebrated their seniors Tuesday night against the Sutherlin Lady Bulldogs after playing in the Marshfield Invitational Tournament over the last weekend.

Senior middle blocker #7 Alonna Nalls putting the ‘power’ in power shot with 1 of her 2 kills.

Coach Shew’s Lady Bruins took the floor for the final time in 2019 against a powerful Lady Bulldog team sitting on an 8-2 league record. The Lady Bruins brought their defense against a powerful front line from the Lady Bulldogs, led by Shelby Jirsa #4 with 5 of the teams 20 digs on the night. Gracie Harms #11 and Cartyr Fitzhugh #6 followed Jirsa with 4 digs each of their own.

Shelby Jirsa #4 had 5 kills, 8 assists, and 5 digs.

The service game from the Lady Bruins wasn’t a factor in the match as the Lady Bruins recorded only 2 ace’s in the match, however, when the Lady Bruins were in sustained rally’s they had their moments at the net recording 14 kills. Again it was Shelby Jirsa #4 leading the way with 5 kills on the night. Alonna Nalls, Cartyr Fitzhugh, Jordan Crosby and Sierra Fitzhugh all had 2 kills of their own.

The Lady Bruins finished their 2019 season looking forward to the future of their program losing only 4 seniors this year and returning with a strong group of new senior leadership next year.
