Even in defeat, Chelsea Prescott fills up the stat sheet.

The Coupeville High School grad played strongly Saturday, as she and her Medaille College teammates closed out the Buffalo State Women’s Volleyball Bengal Challenge.

The Mavericks fell in straights sets to Houghton College (25-18, 25-15, 25-16) and Alfred University (25-19, 25-22, 25-17), finishing 1-2 in the tourney.

Medaille is 3-6 on the season and returns to action Tuesday, Sept. 21 when it travels back to Buffalo State for a match with the Bengals.

Prescott and Co. are on the road for their next four matches, not playing on their own home court again until Oct. 6.

Saturday, the former Wolf picked up four kills and 11 digs against Houghton, then racked up a team-high five kills, a block assist and five more digs against Alfred.

During her freshman season of NCAA D-III volleyball, Prescott has played in all 27 sets, racking up 43 kills, 66 digs, seven service aces, four assists, a solo block, and four block assists.

Chelsea Prescott had herself a nice night.

Playing Friday in the first match of the Buffalo State Women’s Volleyball Bengal Challenge, the former Wolf was a key to Medaille College nabbing a tense straight-sets win.

The Mavericks nipped Cazenovia College 25-23, 25-19, 25-23 to claim their third win in their last four matches.

Medaille, now 3-4 on the season, returns to action Saturday in New York, facing off with Houghton College and Alfred University.

Prescott was a multi-faceted weapon against Cazenovia, racking up seven kills, two assists, two service aces, a block assist, and 15 digs.

She was one of several Maverick spikers to enjoy a hot streak, with Chase Luebeck pounding out nine kills and Haley Kennedy rolling up 29 assists.

During her freshman season of NCAA D-III volleyball, Prescott has played in all 21 sets, racking up 34 kills, 50 digs, seven aces, four assists, a solo block, and three block assists.

Ernie Banks would have been proud.

Fulfilling the baseball legend’s oft-repeated mantra of “let’s play two,” Coupeville High School grad Chelsea Prescott did just that Saturday.

Her games came on the volleyball court, however, and not the baseball diamond, as she now delivers spikes for Medaille College in Buffalo, New York.

The Mavericks freshman filled up the stat sheet, though, something Banks used to do on a regular basis.

Prescott’s solid play helped Medaille earn a split on the day, as the Mavericks beat SUNY Poly in straight sets before falling to Buffalo State in the nightcap.

Medaille sits at 2-4 on the season, and returns to action with an appearance at the Buffalo State Women’s Volleyball Bengal Challenge next weekend, Sept. 17-18.

The Mavericks are scheduled to play Cazenovia College Friday, then have a doubleheader Saturday, with Houghton College and Alfred University on the menu.

This time around, Medaille bounced SUNY Poly 25-9, 25-15, 25-19, then came close, but couldn’t quite get over the hump against Buffalo State, coming up on the wrong end of a 25-21, 25-18, 25-20 score.

Prescott had three kills, four digs, and her first five college service aces against SUNY Poly, before delivering five kills, eight digs, two assists, and a block in the finale.

On the season, the former Wolf standout has played in all 18 sets, racking up 27 kills, 35 digs, five aces, two assists, a solo block, and two block assists.

Prescott’s 34 points on offense is third-best on the team.

Another first.

Playing in her fourth college volleyball match Tuesday, Coupeville grad Chelsea Prescott came away with her first win.

Sparked by a five-kill, six-dig performance from the former Wolf, Medaille College ran visiting Wells College off the floor in straight sets.

The 25-14, 25-18, 25-22 win lifts the Mavericks to 1-3 on the season, and they’ll carry that record into the Medaille/Hilbert Invitational, which runs Sept. 10-11.

Prescott and Co. are scheduled to play Buffalo State, SUNY Poly, and Hilbert College during that tourney.

Playing at home in Buffalo, New York, the Medaille spikers produced a well-balanced stat-line Tuesday, with junior Halle Bogas (eight kills) and freshman Haley Kennedy (22 assists) among the leaders.

Prescott has played in all 12 sets the Mavericks have contested this season, racking up 19 kills and 23 digs thus far.

He’s a Dawg.

Sean Toomey-Stout’s journey from Coupeville athletic sensation to being the future of University of Washington football continues.

Saturday brought the U-Dub season opener, and while a loss to Montana put a dampener on things in general, the mere sight of The Torpedo on the sidelines is enough to send a thrill through Cow Town fans.
