Rangers, Redskins stand in Fort's way (10/13/03)
Fort Recovery Roundup
The Fort Recovery volleyball team will have a warm-up match. It’s a good thing, because the Tribe will need to be hot when it steps on the court for match No. 2.
The Indians (13-7) line up against the New Knoxville Rangers (4-16) in the first round of the Division IV New Bremen Sectional. The brackets for the tournament were released Sunday.
Fort Recovery will open against the Rangers at 1 p.m. with a win putting them back on the biggest stage of all.
The Indians would meet the top-ranked St. Henry Redskins (21-1) in the second round of the tournament. The Tribe, which was 14th in the most recent state poll voting, lost to St. Henry in a tremendously tight match last week 17-15, 16-14.
In the other first-round match the New Bremen Cardinals (12-9) will play the Marion Local Flyers 20 minutes after the conclusion for the Fort Recovery/New Bremen match. Marion Local (15-6) was 13th in the voting in the most recent state poll.
The winner of that match will play the Division IV No. 2 Minster Wildcats (19-1) in the second round.
The two surviving teams will play in district semifinal action Tuesday, Oct. 21 at New Bremen at 7 p.m.
Junior varsity
Fort Recovery’s junior varsity team just ran out of gas by the end.
The Indians (15-4) made it to the final round, and forced a third game. But, they couldn’t put a point on the board in that deciding game in a 15-5, 10-15, 15-0 loss to the Minster Wildcats in the championship game of the Minster Junior Varsity Volleyball Invitational Saturday.
In other matches, Fort Recovery rallied for a 4-15, 15-5, 15-8 win over New Bremen, and topped Spencerville 15-5, 15-11.

Vicki Roessner was also impressive against Spencerville, matching Rammel with six points. She added five kills and a pair of blocks.
