North Dickinson gets victory over Jets; Forest Park downs Norway

POWERS — Strong team serving and 21 kills from senior Kassandra Cary, powered North Dickinson past Skyline Central Conference foe North Central, 3-0 (25-9, 25-7, 25-13) Thursday night at North Central High School in Powers.

“It was a really fun match. North Central has improved since we last played them and their student section was great,” said Nordics head coach Taylor Johnson. “We started off really strong, Micah Lindholm had a 10-point serving streak to begin the opening set, from there we kept playing strong throughout the match.”

North Dickinson’s team serving was 100% in the first two sets and approximately 90% in the final set. “I am pleased with our great serving for the night. It was a great team win, everyone played and got lots of floor time,” Johnson added.

The Nordics return to action on Tuesday night at the Carl F. Lemin Jr. Gymnasium when they will host Bark River-Harris, before hosting Carney-Nadeau on Thursday in a make-up match from Sept. 9.

The Jets, who won the jayvee match 2-1 over ND, will remain home to host SCC foe Munising on Monday evening.

… Also on Thursday at Negaunee, West Iron lost in straight sets, 3-0 in a West PAC Conference match at Lakeview Memorial Gymnasium. The Wykons return to action on Tuesday as they travel back to Marquette County to face West PAC foe Ishpeming.
