Cougars suffer first loss of season to River View

WARDEN — Despite a close final three sets, the Warden Cougars suffered their first loss of the season on Tuesday night, falling 3-1 to River View in a battle of the undefeated atop the Eastern Washington Athletic Conference (East). Warden entered the game 10-0, while the Panthers came into the game 9-0. “Every team wants to be undefeated, but it’s a lot of pressure too to have that,” Warden Head Coach Shanna Golladay said. “I feel like that (loss) can take a load off, and now we can focus on each game. We’re not going to be that 12-0, 13-0, and then we can just go in and play some volleyball.”
