Canton spoils MHS Volleyball home opener

 Madison Volleyball suffered their first defeat of the season on Tuesday, falling to Canton in 3 sets at the Madison High School Gym. Canton pulled away early, thanks to the strong outside hitting of senior Macy Plucker. The C-Hawks won the opening set 25-13. 

Madison took the early lead in the 2nd set, jumping out to a 9-3 lead. But Canton stormed back to take a lead themselves, and forced Madison to take the first timeout of the set. The Bulldogs retook the lead, going up by as many as five points, before Canton came from behind again and won the set 25-23. The C-Hawks then put the match away quickly with a 25-15 win in set 3. 

The Bulldog volleyball team has a busy week to come. They travel to West Central on Thursday, and then to the Irene-Wakonda tournament on Saturday.
