“The JV team played pretty well, but just came up a little short,” W.S. Neal Lady Eagle head coach Jeff Haney said. “We made several mistakes that cost us the game.

“We were just very inconsistent tonight,” Haney said of the loss. “We just have to learn to play a complete game. We struggled with our serves and with serve receive. Flomaton has some good servers and they gave us trouble. Some of our girls just picked a bad time to be off.”
