The Aberdeen Roncalli volleyball program dispatched Langford Area in straight sets Tuesday night, winning the non-conference match by final scores of 25-12, 25-5 and 25-11 at the Roncalli Gym.

The Cavaliers took control of the night at the service line, racking up 19 total aces as a team. Ella Hanson led the way, notching seven aces on just 16 attempts. Camryn Bain had four aces on seven total service attempts.

“We had a strong offensive night,” said Roncalli coach Mandy Smid. “The tone was set from the service line and Ella led the way.”

Hanson also led the way at the net with six of the Cavaliers’ 21 kills and on defense with 14 digs. Maddie Huber notched three kills and 11 assists.

“We stayed aggressive throughout the match and spread out the success even to our younger players,” Smid said.
