Canyon View unfortunately couldn't capitalize on their home-court advantage in their season opener. They fell 3-1 to the Ironwood Eagles on Thursday. The Jaguars were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Eagles apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in September of 2024.
Canyon View started the match hot and won the first set, but they struggled down the stretch and lost the last three. Once all was said and done, the final score wound up at 20-25, 25-20, 25-19, 25-21.
