Easton, PA - The Bethlehem Christian Volleyball teams welcomed the Eagles of Salem Christian to BCS on Tuesday night.  Both the Panthers middle school and high school teams walked away victorious in front of the home crowd.  

The BCS middle school volleyball team played a hard fought 3 sets.  After the Panthers dropped the first set, they were able to battle back and take set 2.  That would mean both teams would be facing a third set to 15.  BCS jumped out and was able to build a lead and close out the 3rd and final to give them a 2 sets to 1 win on Tuesday night.  With the win the Panthers improve to 3-0 on the young season. 

Just like the Middle School team, the Varsity Girls would have to overcome a first set loss.  Playing against a District 11 foe, the Panthers settled in and began to play their game.  Senior Faith Rex and Junior Giana Kasper were diving all over the floor to keep the ball alive.  Senior Emma Deboer and Freshmen Erica Meyers were able to stop the Salem Eagle attack by controlling the net.  Deboer and Meyers recorded multiple blocks on the evening.  Madisyn Rinker was instrumental in setting up Junior Zoe Weiss and Freshmen Ava Harris. Weiss and Harris were key in crucial moments in putting the attack away and also while serving.  The Panthers rallied and took down the Eagles by winning the next three sets.  With the win the Panthers improve to 4-2 on the season. 

Up Next

The Panthers will be back on the floor on Thursday, September 14th when they travel to Valley Forge Baptist.  First tip is set for 3:45 pm. 

Go Panthers!
