The Lady Wave volleyball team picked up a crucial and season-extending win over the weekend.
Fallon, which lost to Elko in straight sets on Friday, came from behind against Spring Creek on Saturday, defeating the Spartans in four sets on the road. Fallon’s 11-25, 28-26, 25-22 and 25-18 win over Spring Creek punched its ticket to the postseason as it will be the No. 6 seed in the Northern 3A regional tournament next week in Truckee.
Fallon hosted Sparks on Monday and welcomes Lowry to town on Wednesday for Senior Night and the regular-season finale. Seniors Ariana Magana, Kinsli Rogne, Karlee Hitchcock and Makenzee Moretto will be recognized before the game. Game time is at 6 p.m.
