Shockers down Fillies, stay alive in volleyball race

BRIDGEPORT – The Waterville-Mansfield Shockers kept their hopes alive for a post-season playoff berth with a three-set win at Bridgeport last Thursday, Oct. 11. Playing the Fillies who were clad in pink jerseys for Cancer Awareness Night, the Shockers took all three sets, 25-22, 25-11, and 25-18.
The win puts 2-3 Waterville-Mansfield in sixth place in the Central Washington B-2B League. A game behind 3-3 Liberty Bell and one ahead of the Fillies. Three more wins would put the Shockers at 5-3, and in contention. However, two of those games are against third place Lake Roosevelt (3-2), and Manson (6-0) tied for first place with Brewster.
Waterville-Mansfield were scheduled to host the Raiders on Tuesday, Oct. 16, before traveling to Oroville to play the Hornets on Thursday, Oct. 18.
