For the first time since 2007, the Holtville volleyball team knocked off Elmore County and the Bulldogs did it in style. After sneaking out with a win in the first set, Holtville dominated and took advantage of several errors from the Panthers to win 25-23, 25-16, 25-22.

The Bulldogs (6-4, 3-1 Class 4A Area 5) turned the tide in the second set by scoring 12 straight points to take a 24-15 lead. Karsyn Findley and Alexus Hindman each recorded a block and a kill in the run before the Panthers ended the run just before Hindman added another kill to finish the set.
