The Jefferson City volleyball team was a step behind the Hermann Lady Bearcats at the start Thursday night, and it ended up costing them at the finish line.

Hermann came out playing with a high energy level from the first point of the match at Fleming Fieldhouse, and while Jefferson City eventually matched it, the damage was done.
