HATBORO-HORSHAM 3, ABINGTON 0 (25-17, 25-18, 25-15)

Hatboro-Horsham opened its season with a sweep over a much-improved Abington program.

“Abington challenged HH especially from their pin hitters, but the Hatters were able to overcome that effort with a dominating performance at the net, boasting a team hitting percentage of .390,” HH coach Jon Young said.

The outsides – senior Nastya Tsetsko and Kayla Jones – had 12 and six kills respectively. Jones excelled at the service line with six aces on one error. The middles – junior Jade Lauzier and senior Izzy Bombas – had an astounding combined .600 hitting percentage with 10 and eight kills respectively as well as adding in four blocks to the mix. The Hatters were led offensively by senior setter Grace Howard with 29 assists while the defense was held down by seniors Maci Lumpkin and Ava Santo with six and five digs respectively.

The Hatters (1-0 SOL) will take on Central Bucks West Tuesday night.
