Oregon's 2-0 Win and Sterling Volleyball Lead Area Sports

Oregon shuts out Byron

Oregon is reported to have defeated Byron 2-0 at Oregon Park West, moving to 6-1 overall and 2-0 in Big Northern Conference play.

The report credits Aiden Hammer and Irvin Acosta with the goals, while Danny Chisamore and Layne Newberry supplied assists. Goalkeeper Deryk Withers reportedly made six saves to preserve the clean sheet.

Fulton recovered from an opening-set loss to beat Milledgeville 22-25, 25-23, 25-18, with Kerby Germann posting 15 kills and Chloe Wilkin adding 13 kills and four blocks. St Bede is reported to have edged Bureau Valley in three sets.
