OWENSBORO, KY — Apollo closed its regular season Saturday with another victory, defeating Christian County in straight sets, 25-12, 25-10, 25-21, to finish the regular season with a 32-3 record.

The Eagles controlled the first two sets before Christian County made the third more competitive. Apollo ultimately completed the sweep at home, carrying a strong finish into the 9th District Girls Volleyball Tournament.

Avery Gray led Apollo’s attack with 34 kills, while Savannah Denson added 12 kills and five blocks. Keelan Wettstain contributed 13 kills, and Ali Lawson made her presence felt at the net with 11 blocks.

Apollo’s defensive effort helped maintain control throughout the match. Jessie Pate led the Eagles with 28 digs, followed by Gray with 17 and Lyla Fortener with 14. Pate also recorded four service aces, while Wettstain, Maddi Roberts and Addy Kirby each added three.
