The Pierre Lady Governor volleyball team remained winless in ESD matches this season as they were swept in 3 games by Brookings last night in Brookings. The Bobcats won the match 25-17, 15-19, 25-19. The Lady Govs are 3-11 overall and 0 and 9 in ESD matches. They return home to host Brandon Valley on Friday and Watertown Saturday night.

The improving Stanley County Lady Buffalo volleyball team still is stuck on two wins as it lost a match to Sully Buttes in 4 games last night at Parkview Gym. The Chargers won 21-25, 25-10, 25-18, 25-14 to improve to 10-7 on the season and stretch their winning streak to 6 straight. The Lady Buffalos are 2 and 16 on the season.


The Pierre Governors 20-14 win over Rapid City Stevens did not move Pierre up in the Power Point standings with two weeks remaining in the regular season. The Governors are 2 and 5 on the season and have a power point rating of 42.286 putting Pierre 13th in the 16 team Class AA. With a change in the playoff format, only the top 12 teams advance to the playoffs with the top 4 teams recieving a first round bye. The Governors will need to win one of their final two games against Brandon Valley or Watertown to gain a spot in the playoffs and that is not a "for sure". The Governors travel to Brandon to face Brandon Valley on Friday night. You can view the power point ratings on the South Dakota High School Activities Association website www.sdhsaa.com.
