VOLLEYBALL Los Molinos defeats Providence in 3 sets By Chip Thompson editor@redbluffdailynews.com @editorchip on Twitter CORNING The Cardinals traded punches with the Anderson Cubs on Friday night and even held a lead at the end of the first quarter, but the Cubs were able to move the ball well on the ground and stepped up on defense with two interceptions and fumble recov- eries for the 54-33 win.
