Ovid-Elsie at Chesaning headlines a nine-game county Tuesday
Four soccer matches and five volleyball matches fill the county slate Tuesday night, with the only in-county meeting kicking off at 6 p.m. in Chesaning.
The only county-vs-county game on Tuesday's card is at Chesaning, where Ovid-Elsie's soccer team visits at 6 p.m. Both teams come in even in the games we have logged: Ovid-Elsie at 2-2, Chesaning at 1-2.
It is a busy night across the county — nine games in all, four in soccer and five in volleyball, every one of them starting between 5:30 and 7 p.m.
In soccer, Durand travels to Birch Run at 5:30 p.m. carrying a 2-1 record. Perry is at Potterville at 5:30 p.m. at 2-2. Bath visits Laingsburg at 5:30 p.m.; the Wolfpack are 0-4 in games we have logged.
The volleyball slate starts with Morrice at Bendle at 6:30 p.m. (Morrice 1-2). Three matches follow at 6:45 p.m.: Birch Run at Byron (Byron 0-2), Montrose at Durand (Durand 2-1) and New Lothrop at Mt. Morris, where New Lothrop brings the best logged record in the county at 3-1. Ovid-Elsie closes the night at Lakeville at 7 p.m. at 2-2.
Records here are computed only from completed games this desk has logged, and the county's ledger still has holes. The Current reported Sept. 21 that no final scores had been confirmed from any of the 10 county football games played Friday, Sept. 18, including Clio at Owosso, LakeVille Memorial at Durand and Ortonville Brandon at Corunna. The eight-game soccer and volleyball slate of Thursday, Sept. 17 also remains unreported, and Byron's Aug. 28 football opener against Mesick has gone unconfirmed for close to a month. Monday's three home games — Kearsley at Owosso soccer, Clare at Ovid-Elsie soccer and Genesee at Perry volleyball — are owed as well. Schools and the score desk owe those finals.
Conference standings for the county's soccer and volleyball programs were not available for this preview, and the dossier lists no records for the visiting teams.
