The first game of the day was against the Midway Lady Vikings. Adrian came out and won the match in two games, 25-22, 25-11. Coach Huckaby said, “The girls came out and played very well first thing in the morning. They played together and did a great job.” In the third game of the day the Lady Blackhawks played Drexel. Adrian took the first game 25-18 but then were defeated 22-25 and 21-25 for a third place finish.

On Tuesday, October 19 the Lady Blackhawks traveled to El Dorado Springs and were defeated in two games, 15-25, 15-25. Coach Huckaby stated, “We started out really well. We looked great. They were moving their feet, talking, working hard and working together. Then El Dorado started playing better and we started playing timid, second guessing ourselves. I am proud of them because they didn’t give up. They continually picked each other up. That is what makes you a team.”
