PREP VOLLEYBALL
Montesano 3, Black Hills 0
Montesano picked up a non-league road victory with a 3-0 win over Black Hills on Tuesday in Tumwater.
The Bulldogs (3-1 overall) won 25-8, 25-16 and 25-15.
Monte was led by senior setter/outside hitter Karissa Otterstetter, who once again filled up the stat sheet with 13 digs, seven kills, two blocks and a team-best 20 assists.
The Bulldogs had contributions from all areas of the court and showed a dynamic offense as sophomore setter Mekena Blancas’ entrance into the rotation allowed Otterstetter to play different positions.
“The girls showed up ready to play tonight. They did a great job attacking and hitting the ball hard,” Monte head coach Cindy Wecker said. “We were able to use Blancas to run a 6-2 in the second and third set so we could utilize Otterstetter as a hitter, which worked well. When these girls are on boy are they fun to watch.”
Bulldogs outside hitter Kaila Hatton had a team high nine kills and four blocks to go along with 21 digs while teammate Liv Robinson had 21 digs and six kills.
Middle blocker Kylee Wisdom was a perfect 21 for 21 from the service line with three aces for Monte.
Montesano hosts Cedar Park Christian at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday.

Hoquiam suffered its first loss of the season 3-0 to Rainier on Tuesday in Rainier.
The Grizzlies (2-1) remained close to the Mountaineers in each set, but fell 25-18, 25-22 and 25-22.
Hoquiam libero Lexi LaBounty finished with 33 digs and was perfect from the service line in a performance head coach Heather Bozich said was “one of the best matches I’ve ever seen from a libero.”
Katlyn Brodhead had 18 assists and 10 digs while Aaliyah Kennedy (11 kills) and Renaejah Burtenshaw (8 kills) led the Grizzlies in kills.
“(Rainier) was tough, but we battled every set,” Bozich said. “What stood out to me the most was how scrappy we played. This team never gave up on a ball and amazed me with some of their saves. I know we lost the match but if we play like this moving forward, it will pay off.”
Hoquiam hosts Aberdeen at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday.
