Greenhill
won its 49th and 50th North Zone matches in row to secure its
eight consecutive Zone championship. The Hornets will enter the
SPC tournament as the No. 1 seed on Thursday and will face the
fourth seed from the south.
Greenhill’s

their sweep of the North Zone with a three-game victory over
Oklahoma City Casaday 15-7, 10-15, 15-5.
"I
feel like it is a sign of consistency in our program that we can
win it that many years in a row as the North Zone champions,”
Greenhill Head Coach Michelle McGuire said. “It shows the
focus and a sense of pride on the players' part to be able to
win it without a loss."
The
Hornets were led offensively with Elizabeth Barnwell's 25 kills
and 5 blocks, while Autumn Erickson's recorded 22 kills and 3
