Franklin Lightning Girls Volleyball 3-0 Newberg

Franklin's girls volleyball team rolled to a dominant 3-0 sweep over visiting Newberg on Tuesday evening, keeping the Quakers unbeaten to open the 2026 fall season. The Portland, Oregon-based program, which competes in the PIL (6A), handled the non-league matchup at home with the kind of efficiency that has defined its early-season run. Franklin controlled all three sets without dropping one, a clean performance that signals genuine depth and focus heading into a demanding stretch of the schedule. The Quakers improve to 4-0, having not lost a set in any of their four matches so far this fall. That kind of consistency is rare this early in a season, and it speaks to how well this group has meshed since the first day of practice. Newberg provided a competitive look from outside the PIL, making the result even more encouraging for Franklin. The Quakers return to action later this week looking to push that unbeaten record further.
