Bowie High School’s Karlyn Dean was named to the all-tournament team at the Glen Rose Tournament on Saturday.
Dean had an outstanding two-day performance with 20 ace blocks, 30 kills and six ace serves as the Lady Rabbits went 3-3.
“Karlyn was involved, and she was a part of some double blocks,” Bowie head coach Jeanie Stark said. “She averaged four blocks per game. I thought she played consistent, and her serving was strong.”
Dean’s serve has increased in both accuracy and velocity this season, and it has been causing opponents fits.
Bowie stood at 7-7 heading into Tuesday’s match at home versus Lindsay. Look for details on that event in the weekend Bowie News.
The Lady Rabbits advanced to the Gold Bracket on Saturday, and suffered a pair of losses.
First, Bowie suffered a straight-set loss to Texas Girls Coaches Association Conference 3A No. 1 Peaster 25-11, 28-26 – as the Lady Rabbits pushed their opponent to the brink in the second game.
“All the girls from Peaster play all year ‘round,” Stark said. “They are very talented, and they don’t have a weak spot. Offense is their strength, and you can’t give them any free balls.” Read more in the midweek Bowie News.
