ROSEBURG – The Roseburg volleyball team is headed back to the second round of the 6A state playoffs for a second straight year and the Indians will face a very familiar opponent.

The Tribe swept the Wilson Trojans on Wednesday, in a tight match that was never decided by more than four points in a set. Roseburg opened with a 25-22 victory and won the next two sets 25-21.

Hannah Bartlett and Chay Swenson led the Roseburg offense with 13 kills each. Karey Lomica led the defense with 15 digs and added five aces. Taylor Russell set up the offense with 28 assists.

The Indians now advance to the second round of the playoffs, where they will square off with Southwest Conference champion Sheldon. The Irish swept McNary in the first round and now will look to advance to the championship tournament by defeating Roseburg for a third time this year. The Indians failed to win a set against Sheldon during the conference season, but did have some close battles.

The second round playoff match-up is scheduled for Saturday at 6 p.m.

At the 1A level, North Douglas and Elkton both claimed victory Wednesday to advance to the second round. The Lady Warriors needed four sets to get by Lowell, 3-1. North Douglas lost the third set, but proved its dominance in the fourth set with a 25-7 score for the win.

Elkton didn’t seem to have much trouble in its first round match, despite being the lower ranked team and on the road. The Lady Elks swept Triad to move on in the playoffs.

North Douglas and Elkton advance to the second round, which will be held Saturday. Top-seed North Douglas will host 16-seed Griswold. 4-seed Days Creek, which got a first round bye, will host No. 13 Prairie City. No. 11 Elkton will travel to No. 6 McKenzie.
