The CCHS Lady Bulldogs had a busy few days, playing in the Willa Nies Memorial Tournament on Saturday and in non-conference games against Buffalo, South Dakota on Monday.

CCHS coaches elected to split their team into two squads for the tourney on Saturday. Jordan defeated Ekalaka 1 in two sets, 25-17 and 25-19 in the first game of the tournament. Ekalaka 2 took down Terry in two sets in the second match. Custer/Hysham beat Jordan in the third.

The sixth game featured friendly competition as Ekalaka 2 defeated Ekalaka 1 in two sets, 25-22 and 25-13. After that, Broadus took down Custer/Hysham and Jordan beat Ekalaka 2.

With both Ekalaka teams out, Custer/Hysham defeated Jordan to make it to the championship where they played Broadus. Broadus then won the championship in three sets, 25-22, 27-25 and 25-22.

It took four sets for CCHS to beat the Harding County Ranchers in Ekalaka on Monday. Lady Blue won the first two sets 25-19 and 25-18, lost the third 22-25, and won set four, 25-21.
