By Ali Holcomb The Holton High School var- sity volleyball team took home two wins last night after defeat- ing Hiawatha and Sabetha during a Big Seven league triangular in Hiawatha. The Lady Wildcats were matched with Hiawatha first and won in straight sets, 25-13 and 25- 21. “Hiawatha has a lot of young talent and played well,” said Holton head coach Janelle Noel. “We started slow and fi- nally picked it up as we went along. I thought Josie (Marriott) and Paige (Crouch) played very well against them. They had some great hits and played the net well.” Holton fell 25-23 in the first Panthers set against Sabetha but rallied to take the match after winning the next sets, 25-23 and 25-20. outscored “I knew Sabetha would be tough,” Noel said. “We saw them this summer, and it was a by Tigers good match up.
