VOLLEYBALL DISTRICT TOURNAMENTS Survive and Advance Wildcats need rallys but sweep Van Burren
BY NOAH MCKAY For the HERALD-CITIZEN
It was not a perfect game, but it was a perfect result for the Monterey High School Wildcats as they rolled to a 3-0 vic- tory over the Van Buren County Eagles on Monday night in the District 3/1A postseason volleyball tournament. The Wildcats fell behind at different points in each of the three sets in the match, but they rallied on strong serves to come back and move on in postseason play. “We’ve played a lot better,” said MHS head coach Mark Sims. “We’re out of school this week, and I’m always a little worried about that when you’re on break. I think it showed a little bit tonight. “We did recover well, and we’ve gotten better at that all year long as far as being able to come back when you have a little adversity. I was proud of them about that.” Van Buren led 12-9 early in the first set, but Chelsea Thornton registered four straight aces to give MHS a 13-12 lead. The teams then traded points, eventually Ben Craven | Herald-Citizen tying at 19. That is when Anna Hudson Cookeville’s Baye Parrish, left, spikes the ball past White County’s Hannah Leftwich during the Lady Cavs’ 3- rattled off five consecutive aces to give the 0 win over the Warriorettes in the first round of the District 6-AAA Tournament on Monday in McMinnville.
