The 8th grade Lady Falcons fell in two games. In both games, Veribest had their chances. Untimely serving errors led to the final scores of 25-21, 25-20. The 8th grade Lady Falcons finish the year at 7-4, winners of four out of their five last matches. Coach Nason would like to say thank you to all of the girls for their hard work. Great job!

In varsity action Tuesday night, Water Valley bested the Lady Falcons in four games. The Lady Wildcats ripped through Veribest in game one. The Lady Falcons, however, battled back to take game two behind the solid serving of Lauren Moeller, and the net play of Emily Lankford and Haley Humble. In games three and four, the Lady Wildcats rebounded with two wins. The Lady Falcons, however, would not stop fighting. Great efforts were turned in by Katie Lankford, Angela Hood, and Megan Aldridge. The Lady Falcons now move into basketball season with high hopes of competing for a playoff berth.
