PLATTSBURGH, N.Y. — The Beekmantown Eagles continued their strong season Wednesday evening, earning a straight-set win over the Plattsburgh Hornets in NYSPHSAA Section VII volleyball. Entering the match with a 12-4 record, Beekmantown used a balanced attack and solid defense to defeat the Hornets 25-16, 25-15, and 25-23, improving to 13-4. The Eagles took control early in the opening set, building momentum with consistent serving and timely kills to secure a 25-16 victory. Beekmantown carried that momentum into the second set, pulling away midway through and cruising to a 25-15 win to move within one set of the sweep. Plattsburgh responded with its strongest effort of the night in the third set. The Hornets battled point for point with the Eagles and kept the set close throughout.

The win improves Beekmantown's record to 13-4 as the Eagles continue their push toward the postseason.
