The Martin County West volleyball team welcomes Mankato Loyola for a key section and conference showdown on Thursday night of homecoming week.
The 11-1 Mavericks have yet to lose a regular-season match and have won three in a row since their only loss against Murray County Central at the Carolyn Hummel Invitational. MCW won the Silver bracket at that tournament on Saturday.
The Mavericks are 3-0 in the Valley division of the Tomahawk/Valley Conference and 5-0 in Section 2A on top of each of those standings. They are also 5-0 at home so far this season.
The 15-2 Crusaders have won nine straight matches entering Thursday. They won a tournament hosted by Norwood Young America with a 6-0 record over the weekend. Mankato Loyola is unbeaten at 1-0 in the conference and 3-0 on the road plus a 4-2 mark in section play.
Coverage begins at 7:00 p.m. with the first varsity serve expected at 7:15 p.m. in Trimont.
