Lady Trojans sweep into new season against Superior
SUPERIOR – The defending District 13C champs picked right up where they left off last year with a cohesive team win over the Lady Bobcats in Superior. Drummond won the match 25-16, 25-19, 25-15.

“It was a great start to the season!,” said second-year head coach Paige Fickler. “The girls hit very well! I am proud of them! They adjusted to a new rotation with ease!
“I'm looking forward to our next game! The team will only continue to get better from here!”
