The Russell High School volleyball team got its season underway on Tuesday, August 31 with a triangular in Plainville.

The triangular was originally scheduled to be in Russell, but moved to Plainville due to extreme heat inside the RHS gym.

The Lady Broncos ended up splitting their season opener. Russell topped Plainville in two (25-17, 25-13) and fell to WaKeeney-Trego in three (26-28, 25-15, 25-14).

Russell (1-1 overall, 1-1 in the Mid-Continent League) plays in the triangular on Thursday, September 2 in Victoria against a pair of state-ranked teams. Victoria is ranked seventh in Class 1A Div. 1. Phillipsburg is ranked sixth in 3A. Matches begin at 5 PM.
