(CRYSTAL CITY) The Crystal City Hornets welcome in the Valley Park Hawks for some volleyball Thursday night on AM 1400 KJFF. The Hornets are 6-7 this season and Valley Park is 1-17.
The Hornets were recently 6-4 before dropping three straight matches to Jefferson R-7, St. Clair, and Festus, all of which are 11 games above .500 or better and are bigger schools.
Head Coach Laura Helwig is happy to be playing a school more their size in Valley Park and is only concerned with how her girls approach the matchup.

One of Coach Helwig’s top performers this year has been Norwegian foreign-exchange student Frida Korshavn, who has 105 kills to lead the team.
