Western Boone Jr. - Sr. High School

The Lady Stars came out strong last night, dominating the first set with a 25-15 win. The team showcased impressive communication, aggressive kills, and consistent serving streaks to set the tone early. However, the momentum dipped in the second set. A lack of communication and a temporary loss of confidence allowed Greencastle to fight back, handing us a tough 15-25 loss. Determined not to let a new conference rival take the match, the girls regrouped and brought renewed energy into the third set. Their grit and determination led to a convincing 15-8 victory to seal the match.
