TRINITY — Despite the Trinity Lady Tigers playing exceptionally well in its first set against Anderson-Shiro, ultimately the team lost to the Lady Owls 3-0.

Head coach Haleigh Blount said the team’s serve receive was solid and allowed us to create opportunities for assists and kills, but it wasn’t sustained. 

The Lady Tigers led 20-18 in the first game, but began making silly errors during rallies and the score ended up 20-25. In the second, the team began forcing plays and making mistakes, leading to a 25-5 loss; there was some recovery, but Trinity lost the third 25-12.

“We're still learning how to mentally hold on and compete each point, but we're cultivating a strong mindset little by little,” Blount said. 

Nevaeh Craft led in kills, Taneya Maxie led in block touches and blocks, and Leslie Gonzalez led in digs.

On Sept. 28, the Lady Tigers lost to New Waverly 25-13, 25-9 and 25-10.

Up next is Onalaska on Tuesday and Hardin on Thursday. 

“We're just looking to build on our experiences for the second round of district,” Blount said. “Our sights are not only this season, but building a mindset for next season since everyone will be returning.”

Groveton

The Lady Indians downed Colmesneil 3-1 on Friday at a home conference match.

On Tuesday, Sept. 28, the Lady Indians blanked Latexo 3-0.

The wins give Groveton an 11-6 overall (5-1 district) record heading into a match at home against Lovelady.

Apple Springs

The Lady Eagles dropped two conference matches at home, losing  3-0 to Kennard on Oct. 1, and 3-0 to Chester on Sept. 28.

Apple Springs, now at 0-7 overall (0-5 district), were to face Colmesneil on Tuesday.
