Area volleyball scores
• St. Joseph-Ogden 2, Danville 025-14, 25-21 Vivian Smith led St. Joseph-Ogden's offensive attack with six kills. Junior Addi Stevens chipped in another five in the non-conference victory. "From the start, we came out with a postive mindset and played consistently in many areas," Stevens said. "We had great defense in the back row, which gave our setters all three options in the front row. We also served well and that was a very big part of our game tonight. Throughout the game our coaches could see the court, giving all hitters options on where to put the ball." Alivia Learnerd distributed 11 assists for SJO.
