Lady Tigers pounced back into action for another win for both the junior varsity and varsity teams as they traveled to Otterville Tuesday night.
Junior Varsity took charge winning 25-16, 25-8. Miley Hayes brought her solid serving skills to the line and finished with 5 aces. Macy Reed and Mallory Reed led the offense with 2 kills each and Zakiyah Morse led the way defensively with 4 digs.
In the Varsity match Lady Tigers were laser-focused from the service line with 3 players serving aces for a total 15 points: Nevaeh Washington (6 aces), Kayley Goodman (5 aces) and Matti Mergen (4 aces). Strong serving in volleyball often means lots of free balls back and that meams lots of opportunities for offense and Lady Tigers were putting the ball away! Nevaeh again led the way with 11 kills and Kelsey Buxton made her presence known with 8 kills. Kayley Goodman was in hunt as well with 7 kills. Setters Matti Mergen and Sydney Gordon found their hitters. Sydney dished 13 assists and Matti added 11. Topping off the hot offense, Kayley Goodman made some spectacular digs to keep the ball alive and finished with a total of 9 digs. Fun night of volleyball!
Lady Tigers retun to action Thursday night taking on Smithton on the home court in The Ridge.
