The Tenino volleyball team is in the win column.
The Beavers bounced back from their opening loss earlier in the week by sweeping Eatonville 25-23, 25-14, 25-17 on Tuesday.
“Slow start tonight, but once communication kicked in we played our game and put the ball away smart,” Tenino coach Shauna Carpenter said. “Definitely some cleanup to do, but progress for sure.”
Sequoia Zimmer went perfect from the service line on 18 tries, and she also added nine assists, four kills, four digs and three aces, while Jaeleen Woodward finished 11 for 13 from the line and added eight digs defensively.
Katen Burkhardt missed just one of her 14 serves while tallying six kills, five assists, four aces, and four digs, while Violet Zimmer finished 10 for 13 with six digs, four aces, and a pair of blocks.
Kendall Bowe finished with seven digs, six kills, and five aces while serving eight of 11, and Keira Laughlin missed just one of seven serves while adding a dig, a kill, and an ace.
Tenino (1-1) will be at home again on Wednesday to face Toledo.
