Volleyball Preview: Maple Grove Red Dragons vs. Fredonia Hillbillies
The Maple Grove Red Dragons will hit the road for the first time this season to challenge the Fredonia Hillbillies at 6:30 p.m. on Friday. Considering both teams were shutout in their prior games, the pair is probably coming into this one with something to prove.
Maple Grove is leaving town to face Fredonia after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. Maple Grove lost 3-0 to Chautauqua Lake two weeks ago. The Red Dragons just can't catch a break and have now endured five defeats in a row dating back to last season.
Once all was said and done, the final score wound up at 25-9, 25-14, 25-9.
Meanwhile, Fredonia was not able to break out of their rough patch on Tuesday as the team picked up their third straight loss. They lost 3-0 to Falconer.
While Fredonia ultimately came up short, they really made Falconer work, particularly in the first set. The match finished with set scores of 28-26, 25-23, 25-16.
Maple Grove was able to grind out a solid victory over Fredonia in their previous meeting back in October of 2015, winning 3-1. The rematch might be a little tougher for Maple Grove since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
