Bowie
The Bowie Lady Rabbits lost a tough match on senior night on Friday against Iowa Park.
The Lady Hawks won in straight sets though the Lady Rabbits made them work for it.
Bowie came into the match following a win against Vernon and was hoping to close out the first round of district play.
Both teams came into the match with a 3-2 record, both losing to Henrietta and Holliday. The winner would take sole possession of third place.
The first set was close, but the Lady Rabbits were playing catch up and could not take control of the set late as they lost 25-20.
The second set was the most competitive one of the match. It went to extra sets, but unfortunately the Lady Hawks pulled it out to win 28-26 to go up 2-0.
Bowie would need to win the every set for the rest of the match to pull the come back, but could not come together in the third set.
Iowa Park pulled ahead and the Lady Rabbits never came back around to threaten the Lady Hawks near the end. Iowa Park won the set 25-18 and the match 3-0.
Forestburg vs Gold-Burg
The Forestburg Lady Horns had a happy homecoming win against Gold-Burg on Friday night.
The Lady Horns won in straight sets against the Lady Bears.
Forestburg won the first two sets with little trouble with the set scores being 25-7 and 25-10. Gold-Burg almost came back to steal set three, but the Lady Horns held on to win 26-24.
Forestburg Coach Kayla Firth liked the way her team played overall on Friday.
For Gold-Burg Coach Cheryl Cromleigh, she did not like what she saw from her team and did not think they played well.
Saint Jo vs Bellevue
The Saint Jo Lady Panthers won at Bellevue on Friday to stay undefeated in district play.
The Lady Panthers won in straight sets against the Lady Eagles. The set scores were 25-7, 25-8 and 25-14.
Saint Jo came into the match after two dominating district wins. Facing a young Bellevue team that did not have much history with volleyball before this season, the Lady Panthers knew a win was probably certain.
Therefore, Coach Kelly Skidmore mainly wanted to see how her team played in aspects under its control, like avoiding service or hitting errors and solid communication. In that aspect, Skidmore had little to complain about.
For Bellevue, scoring double-digits in set three is the highlight against a team likely to go on a playoff run.
Missing scores
Prairie Valley’s non-district game against Collinsville was canceled. Nocona had a bye-game.
