“I am proud of the JV team for making a strong comeback and getting the win,” W.S. Neal Lady Eagle head coach Jeff Haney said. “We made a couple of adjustments after the first set, and the girls did a great job of executing in the last two sets. Our serves were much better in the last two sets. The varsity game was a disappointing loss. I know that players are going to have bad games, but this was a terrible time for several girls to have that bad game on the same day. On a positive note, every set got a bit closer which tells me that this team kept fighting and did not quit.”
