HARRISBURG – Top-rated Harrisburg showed off its top billing Thursday evening, handing Aberdeen Central a straight-sets decision in Class AA volleyball action. The host Tigers won by set scores of 25-6, 25-16 and 25-11.

The Tigers came into the match ranked 10th in the nation in the latest AVCA Super 25 poll, up five spots from the previous week.

And it showed on Thursday.

Harrisburg limited the Golden Eagles to a dozen total kills and no player with more than three.

Conversely, the Tigers were strong both at the net and at the service line. Senior Gabi Zachariasen finished with 16 kills and six aces. Lindsay Langner had four aces and 17 digs, while Bergen Stiff notched a match-best 17 kills.

“They are really good,” said Central coach Jackie Bindenagel. “Hitters come at you from every position.”
