Cross county rivals Superior and St. Regis took the court on Saturday for District 10-C volleyball.
The undefeated Bobcats looked calm, cool and collected in the first game - dominating the floor from the first serve to the last.
Nicole Stroot, who had 18 aces against Two Eagle River on Thursday, continued her explosive play for Superior. The senior racked up eight aces which cause the home crowd and players alike to celebrate with stomping and a Bobcat growl.
Superior senior Rhandy Cox was a beast at the net - tallying nine kills for the Bobcats.
The St. Regis Tigers played scrappy and fought for every single point. Gabby Moeller used her height to knock down four blocks for the Tigers and sophomre Cheyenne Yearout had 16 assists.
Superior kept up a frantic pace throughout the match and won in straight games (25-9, 25-11, 25-18).
The Bobcats face off against Lincoln on Tuesday and the Tigers host Charlo.
