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.
Jamie Carpenter dished off 15 assists to go with seven digs and five kills.
Libero Magye Fenoglio scooped up 27 digs and she had two ace serves. Chloey Hamilton and Amy O’Neal both added eight digs, Sherese Price contributed seven digs, Kady Hackley six digs, and Payton Ferguson and Katelynn Walker five digs.
Price and Hackley both put down a team-best eight kills.
Mackie Trumbull put up two solo ace blocks. Angel Rhudy chipped in with three digs to round out Nocona’s statistics. Read the weekend Bowie News for the complete roundup as well as a look at district volleyball standings in 3A-9 and 2A-10.
