KELLOGG — The top-seeded and host Wildcats saw their season come to a premature end, dropping back-to-back matches in the District I/II Tournament.  

Kellogg opened against Priest River, who had beaten St. Maries earlier in the day.  

The Spartans pounced on Kellogg and the Wildcats had no answer, losing the match in four sets 25-23, 25-19, 11-25, 25-18.  

Sophomore Paige Yrjana had 12 kills and 25 digs, junior Dani Henrikson 13 kills for the topseeded Wildcats against Priest River. 

“We were just pretty error ridden,” Kellogg coach Stephanie Batchelder said. “We were serving and hitting the ball into the net and played super timid and scared to make a mistake. Priest River was scrappy, but this was really on us.” 

Sophomore Ella Yrjana had 17 assists and six aces, sophomore Jordyn Stutzke 20 digs and senior Aubree Groth five blocks for Kellogg.  

With their backs against the wall, the Wildcats took on Orofino in a loser-out match. Kellogg started strong, but Orofino rattled off three straight sets to complete the reverse sweep 14-25, 18-25, 25-23, 25-12, 15-13, ending the ‘Cats’ season.
