On Tuesday, September 12, 2022, the Junior High Lady Pirates hosted the Dilley Wolves for an evening of volleyball.
Dilley did not have a 7th Grade B team, so we started the evening with our 8th Grade B team. The girls came out and with some good serving from Mari Guerrero and Gabby Finamore and easily won their games against the Wolves. The girls won both their games 25-10 and 25-10.
The 7th Grade A team was next on the floor and, again with good serving, we were able to capture a victory. We have expressed to the girls how important serving is in volleyball, and by serving well we are able to stay in control of the game. Our 7th Grade girls came out and served well on Tuesday. Evelyn Barco, Ashley Evans, and Haley Ward all served very well to keep our girls in control of the game. As the girls continue to learn and get stronger in their game, our hope is that the victories will continue to come. The 7th Grade girls won in two, 25-19 and 25-14.
The 8th Grade A team finished the night and provided a shutdown of the evening on Dilley. The girls came out after watching the two previous teams win and wanted to end their evening with a win too. Again, we had some good serving this evening from Aliana Cardenas and Lillian Evans. Both girls served so well in the first game that they only went three rotations. The girls did well in the second set too, and with a few more rotations they finished the evening winning their game. The scores for the 8th Grade A team were 25-4 and 25-18.
The girls' next game in on Monday, September 19th against Natalia. If you get the chance to come cheer the girls on we know they would love to see you.
