Champlin Park Volleyball Falls to Lakeville North in Season Opener
In a matchup of two of the best volleyball teams in the state, Lakeville North (#2 in AAAA) took down Champlin Park (#1 in AAAA) in five sets (25-20, 22-25, 25-23, 24-26, 15-11).
It was a back-and-forth match all night with five or less points deciding each set.
After the Panthers took the first set, Champlin Park answered back, winning the second set led by an offensive attack from sophomores Rylee Inman and Lucy Howe.
Lakeville North took the third set, and the Rebels once again responded by winning the fourth set.
Both Reese Axness and Kathryn Adler were solid throughout the match, but the Panthers took the fifth set and the match.
Champlin Park (0-1) plays its Northwest Suburban Conference opener next Thursday at Elk River.
