Saxony knocked off Jefferson 25-22, 25-24 in the Dig for Life Tournament and only suffered a split with Class 1 power South Iron. The team is loaded with talent, and a surprising rise for the Crusaders to the top of Class 2.
2. Jefferson Blue Jays 6-3-1
Slower out of the gates than thought, but a big match-up with St. Pius X next month will tell us how good this team will be. Genevieve 2-3 and Northwest 0-2 but has a split with Farmington. Jefferson has lost to Saxony 0-2, Ste.
3. Hermann Bearcats 8-6
Another team that doesn’t shy away from the tough competition is the Bearcats. The defending Class 2 champs have taken their lumps, but not to any Class 2 teams. Come playoffs, and the Bearcats are always a contender for the final four.
4. Liberty Eagles (Mountain View) 8-1-1
The only loss on the season is to Rolla and a split with Class 1 power Winona. Big win over Strafford and matchups with Winona, Houston, and Lesterville highlight the schedule.
5. Strafford Indians 8-3
Losses to Republic, Liberty, and Marshfield have all been to solid teams, and the 3-2 win over Forsyth boost their resume. Ashley Suter leads the team in kills with 80 and adds 92 digs.
6. Lawson Cardinals 10-0
A win over Lathrop and Santa Fe are the big wins on the schedule, but the Winnetonka Tournament should give them more competition. Anna Harrold Anna Harrold 5'10" | OH Lawson | 2023 State MO , of course, is leading the team with 97 kills.
7. Whitfield Warriors 9-1
The Warriors have knocked off everyone they should have beaten except for their loss to Pattonville. Battles with Pacific and Westminster Christian will give Whitfield back-to-back big matches.
8. Fair Grove Eagles 7-1-3
The only loss has been a sweep at the hands of Strafford the first weekend of the season. Quality wins over Miller 3-0, Marshfield 3-1, and Rolla 2-0. An October 6 rematch with Strafford is still to come.
9. Lathrop Mules 8-2
2025 Avery Patton Avery Patton 5'10" | MB Lathrop | 2025 State MO is leading the team in kills with 44. The Mule’s only losses have been to Lawson and has a win over East Buchanan. A rematch with Lawson this weekend could the third time be a charm?
10. East Buchanan Bulldogs 8-2-1
Maya Watkins Maya Watkins 5'10" | OH East Buchanan | 2023 State MO has her Bulldogs off to another good start as she has 96 kills on the season. Losses to Benton and Lathrop so far, with a rematch of Lathrop in a tournament this weekend.
