WALLACE — Clark Fork volleyball won another five-set thriller Tuesday night against Wallace 25-23, 22-25, 25-21, 20-25, 15-12.

“We came out strong as a team tonight,” Head Coach Michelle Valliere said. “Wallace has a really good team this year and a very loud crowd, but we didn’t let that distract us too much from our job tonight.”

Abbie Anderson led the offensive effort for the Lady Cats with 11 kills.

“[Abbie] worked hard in the front and back row tonight and didn’t let much drop,” Michelle Valliere said.

Senior Aleehia Valliere had a whopping 27 digs to bolster Clark Fork’s defensive effort and added three aces.

“Wallace had some of the best serving we’ve seen this year and our team did a great job not letting to many drop,” Michelle Valliere said.

Paige Valliere also had a strong showing with 26 assists and 11 digs while Caiya Yanik and Ellie Kiebert each contributed a team high three blocks.

“Overall, I felt like everyone really stepped up their game tonight and did well playing as a team,” Michelle Valliere said. “I feel like each match we get a little more cohesive as a team.”

Clark Fork (4-1, 3-0) will look to remain undefeated in league play at Kootenai 6 p.m. next Tuesday.
