Dodge City – For the first time since 2003, the Great Bend Lady Panthers are Western Athletic Conference volleyball champions. The Panthers swept to their first WAC title in 20-years, and just the 6th title ever, by crusing through their four opponents without losing a set Saturday in Dodge City.
Great Bend (30-4) will look to turn an outstanding regular season into a state tournament berth when they host a 5A Sub-State Saturday (10/21) at Great Bend High School.
