Janesville Craig’s volleyball team breezed past Madison East on Tuesday night in a Big Eight Conference match.

The Cougars won 25-7, 25-17, and 25-6 to improve to 3-6 in the conference.

“We started fast and kept it going,” Craig coach Blake Budrow said. “All three games, we did a great job of serving and distributing the ball.”

Morgan Meinders had five service aces for Craig, while junior setter Katie Villa had 25 assists.

-- La Follette 3, Parker 1—The visiting Lancers won games three and four to earn the Big Eight Conference win.

Parker (1-7) tied the match with a 25-13 win in game two but could not sustain the momentum.

“We just don’t have the consistency right now to be successful in our conference,” Parker coach Dave Lehmann said. “We play well for one or two games but can’t string anything together.”

Parker is off until the Big Eight Tournament on Saturday, Oct. 15.
