Their offense was headlined by Charlotte Metschke and Kasie Knippelmeyer, who picked up nine kills apiece. They got some help from Kinley Vice and her 24 assists. Knippelmeyer was also solid from the service line: she led the team with four aces.

Johnson-Brock is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 12-9 record this season. As for Palmyra, they dropped their record down to 6-15 with the loss, which was their third straight at home.
