Falcons sweep foe
A tired West Franklin High School volleyball team Tuesday found a way to sweep Mission Valley, 25-16, 25-17 and 25-27, 25-14, 25-19.
The Falcons, coming off two straight weekends of tournaments, played without a starter and several of the players spent all day Tuesday teaching young kids at the “Day at the Farm.”
“We still dug in and got it done,” West Franklin coach Angie Corwine said. “We looked tired. It is important [to win].”
Kylee Piersol was out because of illness. Emma Brann stepped in and gave the Falcons a lift.
Corwine said Jessica Cates and Ashley McClain, who combined for 25 kills, turned in good performances.
“They dug us out of holes,” the coach said. “They got it done.”
West Franklin (16-11) plays Tuesday at home against Council Grove.

Rose Griffin — 16 kills, 6 digs, 2.64 passing average.
Jessica Cates — 15 kills.
Ashley McClain — 10 kills.
