From CJ Online:
The
Rossville volleyball team improved to 24-3 after Tuesday's win over St. Marys
at home.
There's
just one more tournament and two more dual meets in the regular season until
sub-state begins on Oct. 22.
With a
blend of returning experience from a team that went 30-9 last year and some new
faces are stepping in, Rossville is looking to get over the hump.
Two key
players to replace were Caylee Douglass and Briar Gillum.
Douglas
had 880 of the team's 1,014 assists last year. The closest player after her had
86. Gillum was second on the team with 289 kills.
This
year, two new faces and some returning ones have stepped into larger roles to
replace that production.
Last
year, Kinley Porter was that closest player with 86 assists. Through 26 games
this year, the junior leads the team with 296 of the team's 559 assists.
Junior
Giulia Caldart, a foreign exchange student from Italy, has 231.

Rossville has shown growth week to week with a younger team this year, bouncing back from a week one loss to St. Marys with a win against Riley County.
In week three, they lost against Hayden and bounced back the following week to beat an undefeated Atchison team.
Facing a one loss-Holton team this week, and after falling to rival Silver Lake in OT last week, I've got Rossville bouncing back once again.
Prediction: Rossville

This year’s War on 24 was a classic as it always seems to be, with Silver Lake topping Rossville in comeback fashion, winning after going for two in OT.

If you met him he would know everything about you and your life by the end of the conversation. Ron loved sports but his passion was baseball having played as a kid, in college and later town team men’s softball. He was fortunate to take many summer baseball trips with friends to visit numerous ball parks. Ron and Carla made several visits to Arizona for spring training and visited the Baseball Hall of Fame. He loved good single malt scotch, dirty martinis and scratcher tickets. He was a member of the St. Marys Methodist Church and attended First United Methodist Church, Lawrence where he served as usher. He was a prior board member of Big Brothers/Big Sisters in Topeka and volunteered with Meals on Wheels. Ron had great respect for our military veterans and supported many veteran causes.
