The Kee volleyball team continued a recent trend of playing two Upper Iowa Conference (UIC) dual matches in the same week, once again splitting that pair between a home and away contest. The Lady Hawks also remained in search of their first win in dual match play, falling in three sets in both those matches this past week. The Kee net squad first fell to North Fayette Valley at home Tuesday, September 27 by scores of 6-25, 18-25 and 8-25 before suffering a similar fate just two days later at Central Elkader by results of 11-25, 10-25 and 23-25 Thursday, September 29.

Holding a 1-15 season record, Kee’s netters were next scheduled to continue their recent trend of twice-a-week Upper Iowa Conference (UIC) matches when they host both West Central Tuesday, October 4 and Clayton Ridge Thursday, October 6 before adding a weekend tournament to that fairly full slate with a trip to Riceville Saturday, October 8. The Lady Hawks will then return to a final week of double UIC duty to wrap up their regular season, playing at MFL/MarMac Tuesday, October 11 and then traveling to Postville Thursday, October 13 before preparing for postseason tournament play.
