"We're rivals," said Prospect coach Marcy Gallagher. "At times it gets pretty nerve-racking. The girls have been working extremely hard since they went to camp this summer. They set goals every week, and one of their goals was to beat Butte Falls. We're in first and they're in second, so we knew this would give us some breathing room if we could get past them. Everybody's doing their jobs and not making silly mistakes." Prospect, which got a boost with the return of Candi Lewis from an ankle injury, is 9-1, 8-1 MVL. Butte Falls dropped to 5-4, 5-3. Lewis, who hadn't played in 10 days, had eight kills and two blocks. Caiti Lewis added five kills and a block, Maeghan Scriven had four kills and was 9-for-9 serving, Megan Shallenberger had seven assists and was 13-for-13 serving, Cathryn Anderson had 14 assists and Lindsay Verret had six kills and three aces. Advertisement Butte Falls was led by Kyndi Sutfin's eight kills and five blocks. Brianna Wright had four blocks and Jossalyn Burg five assists. "They're a scrappy team," said Loggers coach Ronnie Burg of the Cougars. "They cover the floor really well. We just made some silly mistakes and unforced errors. We just weren't moving tonight."
