Reivers sweep Central CC on the road

Courtsey of The Daily Nonpareil

COLUMBUS, Neb. – After seeing a 10-match win streak end Saturday with a loss to Seward County (Kan.), the No. 3-ranked Reivers bounced back strong with the road sweep.

"I thought we played really crisp, really explosive and aggressive, and I thought we played a complete match," IWCC coach Alicia Williams said.

Kortyln Henderson led Iowa Western's attack with 16 kills.

"She was phenomenal," Williams said. "They kept giving her the line, and she kept drilling it."

The Reivers resume play Friday with the first two of four matches at the Johnson County (Kan.) tournament.
