Melcher-Dallas Volleyball Storms Back From Deficit To Topple Orient-Macksburg

The Melcher-Dallas Volleyball Squad made a furious comeback over Orient-Macksburg on Thursday night as the Saints down sets to none stormed back to take the match in five 16/25, 23/25, 25/18, 25/14, and 15/10. Summer Karpan was 22/24 serving while Brooklyn Metz was 22/23. Saydi Benz had 15 kills. Coach Jesyka Nolte told KNIA Sports the girls’ nerves affected their play early on, but she was very happy how they pulled it together to win in five sets. Melcher-Dallas is 1-0 and will travel to Mormon Trail on Tuesday.

With 13 players out for the Melcher-Dallas Football Squad this season, many would think there is not much of a chance to have a great season. However, Coach Pat Ferguson thinks his team is capable of being in many of their games and contending for wins. First, he says they have to stay healthy and not have any missed games.

Ferguson: “We have to figure out a way to get Woodward Academy, figure out a way to get Grandview and Twin Cedars. We also have to stay healthy. With just 13 guys, if we get injured we’re in big trouble.”

The Saints kick off the season with a road contest against Mormon Trail, who Ferguson says has several key starters back. Kick-off is set for 7:00.
