POCATELLO — The Rigby Trojans pushed their current win streak to three with a straight-set victory over the Pocatello Thunder at Pocatello High School Tuesday night.

None of the three sets was very close, with the Trojans (12-3, 1-0) winning 25-18, 25-19, 25-17.

Rigby began the season on an eight-match win streak, losing just one set in that span. After losing three of four, the Trojans are again riding a positive streak, with consecutive wins over Highland, Shelley and Poky.

Their next match is Thursday, when they host the rival Madison Bobcats (4-0, 1-0) in a potential playoff preview.
