MORROW — The 2025 OHSAA high school volleyball season is officially underway, and teams across the rugged Eastern Cincinnati Conference (ECC) are beginning to shape their early-season identities.

The Little Miami Lady Panthers currently sit at 1-3 overall and 1-1 in ECC play. Despite their record, recent performances suggest a team on the rise. Their last two matches — a four-set battle at Loveland and a five-set thriller against nonconference opponent Sycamore — have shown grit and determination from the young squad. Don't count the Lady Panthers out just yet. On Tuesday night, they return home to host Warren County rival Lebanon (2-2, 1-1 ECC) in what's shaping up to be another potential five-set showdown.
