Oskaloosa High’s volleyball team opened its home season last night with a three set sweep of Grinnell: 25-12, 25-12 and 25-20.  Freshman Faith DeRonde had ten kills and two service aces to lead the Indians. Junior Emily Richmond added five kills and was in on four blocks.  Indians Coach Jen Comfort said afterwards that her team still has work to do.

“We still have a lot to work on.  I don’t think our serve receive is where I wanted it to be, especially not the third set, the score showed that.  The girls fought hard, they had good energy and played together…just worked hard for the win.”

Oskaloosa is off until Saturday, when the Indians play at a tournament at Cedar Rapids Washington.
