Norwich 3, Owego 2

NORWICH – Norwich earned its seventh win of the season outlasting Owego in five games Tuesday, 25-14, 28-26, 24-26, 13-25, 25-8.

It was believed just the second win for Norwich over Owego in the past 25 seasons, although Norwich head coach Shelly Alger was not able to confirm that fact.

Megan Moses and Rhea French each had a team-high eight aces for the Tornado (7-3). Lexi Perez led with six kills, Jessica Hubbard picked up four stuff blocks, and French finished with nine assists.

Alger had her team regroup for the final game after Owego got back into the match taking the third and fourth games. “I told them that this was our game and we needed to have fun while we’re playing,” Alger said. “If we weren’t having fun out there, we weren’t going to take it.”

Norwich plays at Susquehanna Valley on Thursday.
