The Russellville Middle School seventh and eighth grade volleyball teams wrapped up the season with wins at Eugene March 28.

The seventh grade won their match 25-10 and 25-12, while the eighth grade won 25-17 and 25-19.

"The main focus with these junior high volleyball teams was passing and serving," Russellville Coach Amy Messerli said. "We told the girls we could win if they passed well and got their serves over, and they were surprised to find out that it really did happen."
