During the last week of season, the JV Lady Lions volleyball lost to Lake Travis High School on Tuesday, but won their Friday game against Hays High School.

On October 17, the JV girls finished both of their sets with 15-25 and 17-25, which resulted in a loss against the Lady Cavs.

“It was a tough loss,” Coach Alexander said. “I feel our team definitely learned from that game. It definitely gets them fired up for their last game against Hays.”

We had more energy, and we told each other what we needed to do in order to win.

“[The game] was good,” sophomore Emily Irlbeck said. “We played, but we lost. We didn’t come together as a team and unify all of our skills.”

On Saturday, October 20, the JV girls beat the Lady Rebels in their last game of the season.

“It went well,” junior Alex Pena said. “It was a struggle at first, but then we got back up and regained our confidence.”

The JV girls lost their first set with 15-25, but won the game with the last two sets of 25-17 and 25-16.

“We kind of all pumped each other up,” Pena said. “We had more energy, and we told each other what we needed to do in order to win.”
