Mud volleyball is always a big hit at the Greene County Fair. The scene changed a bit Thursday night, as storms rolled in and lightning delayed the fun. Organizers made the tough decision not to postpone the fun to another date, but instead moved the event into the indoor horse arena where the teams played in the sand.
A total of 19 teams competed in three different age brackets. The youth bracket included ages 10 through 13, intermediate included ages 14 through 18 and the young adult bracket included ages 19 through 24.
The youth division had four teams vying for the win. The teams included American Hitters, Big Dogs, Setsy and We Know It and Classic Aces. The Classic Aces played three games, including the championship game against the Big Dogs in the youth division.
The intermediate division had the most entries, with a total of eight teams competing for the winning spot. Teams consisted of Net Ninjas, Dirty Divas, Gold Diggers, USA, Mud Dawgs, Muddy Buddies, Muddy Mayhem and The Goon Balls. The Dirty Divas played four games before picking up the win in the intermediate division.
The young adult division had seven teams battling it out. The teams were The Piggers, Smack That Ace, Matsch Monster, Indiana Farm Bureau, Dirty Sets, Hits and Giggles and Swamp Spikers. In the end, Indiana Farm Bureau earned bragging rights after playing four games.
Winning teams earned t-shirts and a cash prize to split.
