After three impressive wins to open the season, the Ballard High School volleyball team appears to have hit a wall, getting shutout in two straight matches.

The Beavers' most recent loss was Sept. 28 to a tough Bothell team that is undefeated in conference play.

Ballard was outscored by 25 points in the first two games of the match but made a run in the third, hanging with Bothell until eventually falling 26-24.

Lisa Day had nine kills for the Beavers, and Madelyn Voelker added five of her own. Monique Marques finished the day with 15 assists.

The Beavers (1-2 conference, 3-2 overall) take on Inglemoor (2-1 conference. 3-3 overall) at 7 p.m. on Sept. 30 at Ballard High School.
