With the Bainbridge girls soccer team in attendance, the Bainbridge girls volleyball team took care of business by defeating the Seattle Prep Panthers in three games Friday by the scores of 25-18, 25-18 and 25-11.

The serves of Lindsey Bratonia and Hannah Stuart were the key for the Spartans, as Bratonia was under serve for a majority of the points in all three games, while Stuart’s jump serve helped close out the third game, as she had four aces.

Stuart finished with 14 kills, eight aces and nine digs, while Marijke Schwarz-Smith had eight kills and three blocks.
