Rod's Tuesday Morning Sports Blog

A short-handed Pierre squad was swarmed under by Aberdeen's serving and hitting. Aberdeen Central beat Pierre 25-12, 25-9, 25-11 in high school volleyball at Golden Eagles Arena on Tuesday in an Eastern South Dakota Conference match. The Golden Eagles missed just eight serves and racked up 11 aces and 32 kills to keep Pierre off balance.

The Stanley County Lady Buffalo volleyball team was beaten 3-0 by Chamberlain in the Lady Buffalos home opener last night. The Cubs won the match 25-15, 25-21, 25-15. Shelby Geinger led the way for the Lady Buffs with four kills and three aces. Kelly Sweetman also had nine digs and three aces in a losing effort.

Sioux Falls Lincoln, Elk Point Jefferson and Northwestern hold down the top spots in the first South Dakota High School Volleyball poll from the South Dakota Sportswriters Association. Mobridge-Pollock is rated 5th in the Class A rankings while Herreid-Selby Area is in a tie for 8th in the Class B poll for the only teams from the Dakota Radio Group listening area ranked. Miller received some votes in Class A while Sully Buttes and Eureka-Bowdle received votes in the Class B poll but not enough to crack the rankings

The Pierre Governor golf team traveled to Aberdeen yesterday to compete in the Hub City Invitational only to get rained out. Head Coach John Knox said that most of the players got 8 or 9 holes in before the rains became to heavy to continue and officials called the tournament. Coach Knox said that the one good thing about it yesterday was the Cash Anderson and Joey Beck were playing with the varsity and both were golfing pretty good which is a good sign. The Governors travel to Sturgis for a tournaent on Friday.
