Highlights
Barton and Colby battled back and forth in the 1st game of the match with Barton finally putting away the Trojans in extra points, winning 27-25. From there, things got a little easier each game. Barton pulled away midway through the 2nd game for the 25-20 win then dominated from start to finish in the 25-12 win to wrap up the evening.
The Cougars were led by Juliana Barros in kills with 9 on just 14 attempts. Tonga Malia added 8 kills with Taylor Arnold and Raney Okeson finishing with 7 apiece. Barros also had 13 assists and 15 digs. Malia also added 15 digs and Morgan Cooper 13. Okeson led Barton with 5 blocks – 2 solo.
Barton will have a week off before returning to play Garden City at 6:30 pm at the Barton Gym Wednesday. Garden is just 2-15 overall at the current time and 0-5 in the West. Barton beat Garden at the recent Air Force Prep Tournament 25-15 and 25-13. That will start a flurry of West matches as the Cougars will play 4 matches over a stretch of 8 days concluding with another home tilt against Hutchinson on October 6. In between those Wednesday’s, Barton will play road games at Dodge and Pratt.
