Taking to the floor without defensive stalwart Molly Huusfeldt, Forest Lake Christian's varsity volleyball team fought through three games for a clean sweep of Victory Christian Tuesday night.
Huusfeldt, who was injured in last week's loss to Vacaville Christian, is likely to be sidelined for a couple of weeks due to a pulled calf muscle.
“She's kind of the rock of our defense,” said FLC coach Travis Smith. “It's a hole in our lineup that we really cannot fill.”
But the Falcons had a pair juniors step up when needed Tuesday, as FLC scored a 25-17, 25-18, 25-16 Central Valley Christian League win.
Junior Amanda Timmerman had three kills and block, while classmate Madeline Zea added four kills and six digs.
Senior Caitlin Hanson had five kills and 10 digs, while Laura Ritchart had five kills and four blocks and Morghan Pomeroy totaled five kills and three blocks.
FLC (5-4 overall, 2-1 CVCL) travels to Woodland Christian Thursday.
JV: FLC 2, Victory Christian 0
Forest Lake's junior varsity scored a 25-10, 25-21 win over Victory Christian.
Maggie Aubuchon had eight kills and six blocks, while fellow middle blocker Emily English had six kills and three blocks.
FLC's JV improved to 8-2 overall and 3-0 in the CVCL with the win.
