The Nocona High School volleyball team was given all it could handle from host City View in the first set of Tuesday’s District 3A-9 match.
But, in the end, the Lady Indians prevailed by scores of 28-26, 25-18, 25-13.
The win put Nocona in third place in the district with a mark of 17-15, 6-2, and it appears as if the Lady Indians are firmly entrenched in a playoff spot.
