Despite a determined effort on both sides of the ball, the OLSH Chargers fell to Montour in straight sets (0-3) in boys volleyball action Thursday night.
The Chargers entered the match-up looking to build on recent progress but ran into a strong Montour squad that capitalized on key moments to secure the win. OLSH, however, showed flashes of promise, particularly from its offensive leaders.
Senior outside hitter Isaac Tarbuk led the team with 9 kills and contributed across the board with 3 blocks, 2 aces, and a passer rating of 2.3. Tarbuk's all-around performance underscored his role as a cornerstone for the Chargers' attack and defense.
Noah Wheeler followed closely with 8 kills, providing consistent offensive pressure, while Brady Rooney added 6 kills of his own in a solid supporting effort at the net.
On defense, Patrick Altma and Isaac Tarbuk each made their presence felt at the net with 2 and 3 blocks respectively, helping the Chargers slow down Montour's offensive momentum during critical stretches.
From the service line, Aiden Curry led the team with 3 aces and also contributed a strong 2.1 passer rating, demonstrating steady play in the back row.
While the Chargers were ultimately unable to convert their efforts into a set win, the individual performances signal continued development and competitive spirit as the season progresses.
