Kodiaks fall to Mountain Lions in early season clash

LEAVENWORTH — The Cascade Kodiaks volleyball team faced a setback in their early season campaign, falling to the Liberty Bell Mountain Lions 3-1 in a non-league match on Thursday.

The defeat marks the first loss of the season for the Kodiaks, who now stand at 1-1 following their opening victory against Thorp earlier in the week. The match, held at Cascade High School, showcased a competitive spirit from both squads, but ultimately saw the Mountain Lions emerge victorious.

The Kodiaks' coaching staff will likely use the coming days to analyze their performance against Liberty Bell and fine-tune their strategy. With the season still in its early stages, Cascade has ample time to regroup and build on the promising start they showed in their season opener against Thorp.

As the volleyball season unfolds, teams like Cascade continue to navigate the challenges of non-league play, using these early matches to prepare for the rigors of their conference schedules. The Kodiaks' resilience will be tested as they aim to bounce back from this defeat and establish themselves as contenders in the competitive landscape of high school volleyball.
