South Eugene Axe Girls Volleyball 3-2 Oregon City

South Eugene's girls volleyball team needed every set to earn it, defeating Oregon City 3-2 on the road Saturday in a non-league match. The Axe, based in Eugene, Oregon, and members of the 6A-8 Midwestern League Hybrid, made the trip to Clackamas County and came away with a hard-fought victory that pushed their record to 18-8 on the season. A 3-2 result means the match went the full five sets, a testament to the competitive nature of both programs. South Eugene entered the day at 17-8 and leaves with a winning record intact heading into the final stretch of the fall schedule. Facing a program from outside their league gave the Axe a chance to test their depth and composure against unfamiliar competition, and they responded. With the regular season winding down, Saturday's result adds confidence and momentum as South Eugene looks ahead to potential postseason opportunities in the weeks to come.
