DIXON – The last time LaSalle-Peru played at Lancaster Gym, its season ended. On Wednesday night, the Cavaliers avenged that loss to Dixon .

L-P weathered rallies by the Duchesses in both sets of their nonconference match to pull out a 27-25, 25-18 victory, a little more than nine months after the regional semifinal loss in Dixon.

“It’s great to win, especially in this game, because it’s such a rivalry game,” Kelsey Frederick said. “We lost to them first round [of regionals] last year, and I know we wanted revenge for that.”

“I think coming back from last year, that hard loss against them in the regional first round, I was excited to play – we all were excited tonight,” Aubrey Duttlinger added.

The Cavaliers (14-1) led by as many as seven points in the first set, and were up 21-15
