NEGAUNEE — Maddie Kreider led the Kingsford varsity volleyball team with 14 digs, 10 assists and seven kills as the Flivvers shut down Negaunee 25-17, 25-8, 25-22 in a non-conference match on Thursday at Lakeview Memorial Gymnasium.

“Playing Negaunee in their gym is always a lot of fun,” Kingsford coach Jaclynn Kreider said. “The environment is great to compete in.”

The visiting Flivvers dealt with all the Miners had to offer, according to their coach.
