James Island had lost 11 straight at home dating back to last season, but on Monday they dropped down to 1-5 to make it 12. They lost 3-0 to the Wando Warriors. The result was an unpleasant reminder to the Trojans of the 2-0 loss they experienced in the pair's previous head-to-head fixture back in October of 2024.
As for Wando, they are on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five games. That somehow still isn't as good as their 10-2-1 record this season. They not only won on Monday, but they posted their biggest win since September 9th (when they won 3-0).
Wando got their win on the backs of several key players, but it was Xander Gilbert out in front who had ten digs and two aces. That's the most digs Gilbert has posted over his last nine matches. Sam Treptow also deserves some recognition as he had his first block of the season.
Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. James Island will host Fort Dorchester at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday. As for Wando, they will be playing at home against Cane Bay at 5:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The contest will give the Warriors their first taste of in-conference action this season.
