The Hopkins varsity volleyball team took a crucial step toward winning the O-K Silver Conference championship Wednesday evening in a Parents’ Night victory over visiting Wyoming Lee.
The Lady Vikings prevailed 24-6, 25-3 and 25-8 to lift their league record to 6-0. If they can take the conference tournament, they will take all the marbles. They’ll go into the league competition in first place after all dual matches. They expect stiff competition from Calvin Christian and NorthPointe Christian.
Hopkins, now 44-6-4 overall for the season, will be host for the league tournament Saturday.
