ALBION — Believe it or not, the Bulldogs were the inexperienced ones.

Judging by the dominating performance shown Thursday by the Humphrey High volleyball team against Cedar Valley in the D1-3 District Final, one would think the Bulldogs were in a comfortable situation which they’d been in plenty of times before.

It’s conference tournament time across the state with quite a few already having been completed last week, many more this week and the final ones next week. Conference Tournaments will affect the rankings in all division as many of the top teams likely will face each other. Some those results were reflected in this week’s new NebVolleyball/Jones Insurance Agency, Inc. Rankings for each classification.

Papillion-LaVista swept Class B's new top team Lincoln Pius X in in the finals of the Lincoln Northeast Tournament, while former Class B No. 1 Gretna was defeated for the first time this season. Earlier last week, Kearney Catholic was defeated by Grand Island Central Catholic, switching up the rankings in C1. D1 BDS lost to Class C2 Blue Hill, but remains atop in D1 as does Bertrand in D2 and Lutheran High Northeast in C2 in this week’s Oct. 3 NebVolleyball/Jones Insurance Agency, Inc. Rankings for each classification.
