The Clinton High School Volleyball team grabbed a sweep against the Pearl Lady Pirates on Tuesday night.

The Lady Arrows won 25-17, 25-17, 25-12, in a three-set victory over Pearl in a non-district match at Arrow Gym. Under first-year Head Volleyball Coach Natalie Duvall, the win surpassed last year's win total, notching the squad's sixth win.

Clinton and Pearl exchanged pleasantries throughout the opening of the first set, but Zaley Madkin flipped the script with a side-out kill. Then, Madkin sparked a five-point rally, including an ace on her first serve, giving the Lady Arrows a 17-12 advantage. The red and black would outscore the Lady Pirates 8-5, including a Jaliyah Harrington service ace, to win the set, 25-17.

In the second set, Clinton broke a 4-4 tie with an 8-1 run, leading to a 12-5 advantage. The Lady Arrows never had their lead drop below six points and led by as much as nine points during the second, winning 25-17.

The Lady Arrows dominated the match's final set, rushing to a 5-0 lead that turned into a 10-4 advantage later. Clinton would have a 15-8 lead and then outscore Pearl 10-4, securing the sweeping triumph.

In junior-varsity action, the Lady Arrows swept the Lady Pirates 25-10, 25-9, prior to the varsity match.
