Now that the Scobey girls’ volleyball team has taken care of the Savage Warriors — all seven of them on Saturday night’s active roster by scores of 25-22, 25-20, 25-19 — the question now is: can the Spartans take care of the Saco-Hinsdale Panthers?

If last season’s scores against the Panthers are any indication, it could be quite the battle Friday, September 10, in Saco when the Spartans hit town.

In the 2009 regular season the Panthers defeated the Spartans in Scobey September 11 25-22, 25-21, 12-25, 25-18. On October 24 in Saco the Spartans were the winners by scores of 25-21, 20-25, 25-23, 24-26, 15-11.

In the 2009 District 3C Tournament in Scobey the Panthers won 23-25, 26-24, 25-21, 25-18 in the second round. In the first championship match the Spartans won 25-23, 11-25, 25-19, 13-25, 15-12 to force a second championship, where the Panthers captured the title with 22-25, 25-21, 25-21, 18-25, 15-12 scores. Saco-Hinsdale went on to place fourth in the East C Divisional Tournament while Scobey was out in three matches.
