BOYS SOCCER

In Centennial League action last night, Washburn Rural slowed down a hot Emporia squad:

In United Kansas Conference play, Shawnee Heights exploded for four goals in the second half in a 5-0 shutout win at Leavenworth.

Hayden dropped a 2-0 decision at home to Tonganoxie.

VOLLEYBALL

In a marquee Centennial League match, Seaman took on Washburn Rural in a best-of-five dual. The battle lived up to the billing, as the 5A #9 Lady Vikes took a two-set lead before the second ranked team in 6A stormed back for a five-set victory, 21-25, 23-25, 25-15, 25-21, 15-13. The win moves Rural to 11-1 while Seaman drops to 11-6.

Topeka High and Topeka West headed out to Manhattan for a quad that involved the host Indians and Concordia. The Trojans and Chargers both lost to Concordia and to Manhattan, with West taking down Topeka High in their matchup.
