The last two Scenic Bluffs volleyball teams began conference play Tuesday night in Cashton.
The Eagles welcomed Wonewoc-Center as the two squads looked to start on the right side of the league title chase.
In the end, it was the visiting Wolves that would move into the win column after notching a 3-1 victory over Cashton's crew.
The Wolves started with a narrow 25-23 win in set one, then were outdueled in the second as the home team pinned a 25-19 victory to their ledger.
Wonewoc-Center responded in the third with a push that produced a 25-17 victory. The final set went the visitor's way as well.
"(The) first match went well and the kids played hard," said Cashton first year head coach Lauren Fanning. "They never gave up."
Senior Aubri Schaldach was recognized for reachgin the 500 career digs milestone before the game.
The W-C team joins Bangor, Brookwood and Hillsboro in starting Scenic Bluffs play 1-0. Bangor and Brookwood swept New Lisbon and Necedah, respectively last week. Hillsboro outlasted Royall 3-2 last Thursday.

All eight SBC teams will be in action on Sept. 10 at Cashton and Wonewoc-Center for the league's doubleheader night.
Cashton will host Bangor, Brookwood and Hillsboro in both the elementary and high school gyms with matches starting at 5 in the evening. The Eagles will play Hillsboro first and Bangor second.
"I think the biggest thing we'll be working on before tomorrow is defensive positioning," said Fanning, "and finishing our attacks. Making smart plays that will score us points."
Cashton will hit the road Saturday to play at Sparta's home tournament. Next week the Eagles will be at Necedah on Tuesday and home against New Lisbon on Thursday.
