After going through Argenta-Oreana--one of the three teams to beat Arthur-Lovington/Atwood-Hammond this season--Saturday, the Knights took down Sangamon Valley/ Tri-City in three sets for the second time in a week.
The Knights fed off an electric crowd in the first set, jumping out to an 11-1 lead, thanks in large part to great serves, before taking the first set in convincing fashion.
Rebounding from falling 25-21 in the second set the Knights took the third by a landslide 25-15, ending the set on a 11-1 run and superb serving from junior Macy Hollingsworth.
Helping that effort were 10 kills, nine digs, five blocks from Taylor Powell, 11 kills from Abby Foreman and six kills 29 assists and a game high seven blocks from Madison Brown.
The LOVC NW Division crown sets up a date with Tri-County for the LOVC tournament title for the third time in the last six seasons.
