Page 1 of 2 Conrad lost a tough opening match at the Divisional tourney to host Glasgow on Thursday and will have to win a minimum of five matches over two days to advance their season. Facing off with the Glasgow Scotties, the scores looked like this after four games: 25-8, 25-19, 23-25, and 25-17. Cowgirl Amanda Judisch turned in a fine all-around floor game for the team. Of the 34 kill shots Judisch flipped back 11, and she blocked 7-25 shots at the net. The senior southpaw also dropped in 4-10 aces from the service line. Kenley King had 11-59 digs and Kaytlin Fowler dished up 11-31 aces. The loss pitted them against Wolf Point in a Friday morning contest. Area teams, Choteau, Cut Bank and Fairfield were all first round winners. The Cowgirls still had a chance at making a trip to the big dance in Bozeman, but they could not afford to lose another match. It also meant playing three games on Friday. Their morning match was against Wolf Point and Conrad bested them in straight sets by scores of 25-12, 25-21, and 25-17. They were a team on a mission. Lyndsey Green led the squad in kill shots with 8-25. The team poured over 22 ace serves, 10 more than Wolf Point, with Katie Schlepp dropping in six. Kylee Schlepp blocked 5-18 shots at the net while Newmiller had 8-37 digs.
