SPENCER – The Spencer volleyball team finished its Cloverbelt Conference East Division schedule with a 3-1 loss to Owen-Withee on Thursday night at Spencer High School.

The Rockets finish the Cloverbelt East season with a 4-3 record, ending their run of five-straight conference titles.

Owen-Withee (2-5) won the match 21-25, 25-13, 25-20, 25-23.

Lexi Baehr had 16 kills and 21 digs, Sadie Mercier had 22 assists, 20 digs and six kills, and Chloe Drews had three blocks and two aces for the Rockets.

“We came out strong in Game 1, but lost all our energy the rest of the way,” Spencer coach Buff Heller said. “It was hard to watch us get out hustled.”

Spencer will compete at the Gilman Invitational on Saturday and play in a Cloverbelt Conference Crossover game on Tuesday to wrap up its regular-season schedule.
