DUBLIN – Pender defeated West Bladen 3-0 Thursday night in Four County Conference volleyball action by set scores of 25-11, 25-17 and 28-26.
On ‘Cure ALL Knight’, the Lady Knights played in honor of Kassidy Anderson’s mom who had surgery Wednesday for cancer and Kathryn Schultz, a senior player that has ulcerated colitis that requires chemo once a month.
