The Kee volleyball team wrapped up its 2021 regular season schedule playing a final pair of dual matches against two teams from the top-end of the Upper Iowa Conference (UIC) this past week, both opponents sitting just behind UIC-undefeated North Fayette Valley with just a couple league losses each.

The Lady Hawks first hosted a Turkey Valley squad with just two losses in UIC play Tuesday, October 12, falling in three straight sets by scores of 12-25, 6-25 and 12-25. The Kee girls then fell to another UIC squad with just two league losses at MFL/MarMac Thursday, October 14, surrendering final results of 12-25, 3-25 and 7-25.
