Mahomet-Seymour’s volleyball team eclipsed the 30-win mark for the fifth consecutive full season on Saturday (Oct. 26) while winning the championship of the M-S Invitational.
The Bulldogs overpowered Arthur-Lovington.Atwood-Hammond (25-9, 25-12), Decatur MacArthur (25-10, 25-8), Manteno (25-13, 25-15) and Washington (25-17, 25-16) before edging Chatham Glenwood in the championship match (25-21, 20-25, 15-11).
The 2020 season was a COVID-shortened one where just 16 matches were contested.
M-S was represented on the all-tournament team by senior Ellie Dallas, senior Addi Eisenmann and junior Ava Yeakel.
The Bulldogs (32-3) have a 12-match winning streak and will return to action on Tuesday (Oct. 29) against Urbana in the IHSA Class 3A Champaign Central Regional semifinals.
With two wins next week, M-S would get to play in a sectional it will host, starting on Tuesday (Nov. 5).
