CEDAR RAPIDS — It’s green, Coach. Forest green.

No. 9 Linn-Mar endured five games and two hours — and survived two match points — to outlast No. 5 Iowa City High in a Class 4A regional-final volleyball match last night at Prairie High School.

Scores were 25-27, 25-13, 21-25, 25-15 and 18-16.

The Lions (26-14) earned their first trip to the state tournament. They’ll face No. 2 Iowa City West (37-2) in a quarterfinal at 2:15 p.m. next Wednesday.
