Rock Hill downed the Minford Lady Falcons on Monday in five sets, 14-25, 25-20, 25-16, 22-25 and 15-4.

The win gave the Redwomen their third win in the last four matches. They are now 10-3 on the season.

“The girls are playing better as a team,” said Rock Hill coach Mary Ferguson. “They play together well. They’ve come a long way.”

Katie Johnson had 21 kills and Mei Ueda 17 kills in the win over Minford. Tommi Butler had a solid game with 9 kills and 4 blocks and Brooke Hanshaw added 5 kills.

Last week the Redwomen were 2-1.
