Kayci Murphy assists in win

The Clark Cougar varsity volleyball team began the second half of district play against Marshall and the outcome was the same as their first meeting – a 3-0 victory by the Cougars.  The victory gives Clark a 9-1 district record and share of first place.  It was also the Cougars ninth win in a row as they look ahead to one of the tougher teams in the district – Brandeis – on Tuesday.

The Cougars led by as much as 7 points in the first set, taking a 25-19 win.  In the second set, the Rams enjoyed a 6 point run to tie the score at 18, only to see the Cougars finish with a 7-2 run after a timeout to finish 25-20.  In the third set, Marshall actually led early for a moment, but then had to watch Clark reel off a 25-16 win to get the game win.

The Cougars are now 18-15 overall.
