St. Joseph’s Lady Bulldogs swept the Cedar Ridge Lady Timberwolves, 25-9, 25-12, 25-8, Thursday in a three-game match in Cedar Ridge.

St. Joseph improved to 10-0 in the 3A-Central Conference and 15-0 overall.

“This was a good win for us,” coach Luke Davis said. “I was curious to see how we would react after being pushed to five games on Tuesday.”

Junior Jessica Justice served eight aces and handed out 18 assists. Senior Katie Reinhard delivered eight aces, and sophomore Courtney Briggler had five kills. Junior Amy Schichtl led the Lady Bulldogs with 10 kills.

“The girls reacted the way I wanted them to," Davis said. "They came out with a fire in their eyes and took care of business.”

St. Joseph will play host to Conway Christian on Tuesday, Oct. 13.

“Next week is a big week for us. We play two good conference teams to close up the season,” Davis said. “If we win both of those games we will lock up the outright conference championship. We need to have a good week to carry us into district on the 19th and 20th.”
