Water Valley Volleyball to Take on Round Top-Carmine In State Semifinals Wednesday

 

GARLAND, TX — The Water Valley LadyCats advanced to the Class 1-A State Volleyball Semifinals for the second year in a row following their five set win against Bronte last Saturday.  In that game, Water Valley had control after winning the first two sets 25-19 and 25-11, but they lost the next two by two and six points, respectively.  They escaped in the fifth with a competitive 16-14 win. 

The Bronte game was by far the closest win they have had so far this postseason.  Water Valley, who is 31-12 this season, cruised by Strawn, Vernon Northside, and Lamesa Klondike in three sets each.  Now, they will face Round Top-Carmine Wednesday in the semifinals in Garland for a chance to play in the championship and avenge last year's championship loss to Neches. 

Round Top-Carmine, 21-11, has not played a fourth set in their run to Garland, beating Runge, Austwell-Tivoli, D'Hanis, and Fayetteville in three sets. 

The first serve is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. Wednesday.  The winner will play the winner of Neches/Blum.  That game takes place at 11:00 a.m., directly before Water Valley's. 

Water Valley is looking for their third State Championship.  The other two came in 1986 and 2011.
