DUBUQUE - The Cedar Rapids Washington volleyball team opened the 2012 campaign with a 25-23, 25-21, 24-26, 25-13 setback against Dubuque Wahlert in a Mississippi Valley Conference match Tuesday night.
Dani Franklin led the Warriors with 10 kills. Hanna Reese went 18-for-19 on serves and collected three aces. Alisa Gerhold had 17 digs and Shanay Gonder contributed seven kills.
Jackie Hughes and McKenzie Asplund won four events apiece and Washington swamped Jefferson, 122-64, Tuesday at the J-Hawk pool.
Jackie Allen and Maddie Dietz won three events apiece for the Warriors. Kaitlyn Nemickas won a pair of events.
Hughes won the 200 freestyle and 100 butterfly, and also swam on the winning medley relay and 200 free relay.
Asplund won the 200 individual medley and 100 breaststroke and swam on the medley and 400 free relays.
With 10 graduated seniors playing college football, experts perhaps could have been forgiven for hedging their expectations for the Washington football team.
"There weren't very high expectations for us," Washington senior tailback Mitch Bredeson said Friday night, after the Warriors disposed of cross-town rival Kennedy, 17-6, in a season-opener at Kingston Stadium. "We proved we still could play in the MVC and be a top 10 team in the MVC. That's pretty special to us, yeah."
How special?
"This is a special win and I'm going to give you eight hours to celebrate," Warriors Coach Tony Lombardi told his squad after the game.
Harrison Moore fired a 1-under-par 35 Thursday to help Kennedy win a Mississippi Valley Conference quadrangular boys golf meet at Gardner Golf Course.
Conner Koberg shot an even-par 36 for the Cougars. Davis Sutton of Kennedy, Austin Bergstrom of Washington, Noah Federici of Iowa City West and Christian Rapp of Wahlert all shot 37.
IOWA CITY - Jackie Allen won four events and McKenzie Asplund and Maddie Dietz won three apiece to lead Washington past Iowa City High, 113-70, Tuesday in a girls swimming meet at Mercer Aquatics Center.
Allen won the 50 and 100 freestyle events and swam on the 200 medley and 400 free relays.
Asplund won the 200 and 500 freestyle events and also swam on the winning 400 free relay.
Dietz won the 100 backstroke and swam on the 200 medley relay and 400 free relay.
