Team KJ claims Byron volleyball
tourney championship
BY SAM SMITH
There was a lot of
bumping, setting and spik-
ing going on at the Byron
Days Volleyball Tourna-
ment Saturday in Byron.
Fourteen teams were
split into pools of three or
four teams playing two
games to 21. The top two
teams from each pool ad-
vanced to an eight-team
single elimination bracket
for the championship.
After an intense round
of pool play, first round
and some semifinal games
of the tournament, it came
down to just two teams left
for the championship game,
Team KJ and Team Emilee.
Team Emilee got out to
a great start in game one,
defeating team KJ 21-8.
But in game two, Team KJ
turned things around, de-
feating Team Emilee 21-
11 to send the match into a
game three. In game three,
Team KJ took care of busi-
ness and went, on to defeat
team Emilee 15-8 to win
the tournament.
The roster for Team
KJ included KJ Blackburn,
Leslie Blackburn, Ashlee
Blackburn, Lauren Peter-
son, Kallee Wilson and Jes-
see Wilson.
"It was a really good
tournament," J. Wilson
said. "There were a lot of
great teams out here giving
110 percent. I'm proud of all
our teammates."
The roster for the run-
ner-up team, Team Emilee,
included Emilee Reasch,
Chase Tippetts, Charri
McArthur, Brandon Wolv-
ington, Eston Croft and Me-
gan McClure.
"It was a good turnout,"
Tournament Coordinator
Stormy Jameson said. "We
had nice weather and ev-
eryone had fun."
