The Central boys volleyball team tuned up for the postseason by sweeping Kimberly 25-14, 25-17, 25-16 in a non-conference match on Monday night in Paddock Lake.

After winning the Southeast Conference Tournament title on Saturday, the Falcons (26-7-2) played at a high level against the Papermakers, who were probably regretting the 300-mile round trip.

“We’re starting to get our edge back right now,” Central coach Wayne Schultz said.
