Both teams came home with a victory as the high school program won 25-12, 25-17, 25-10 and the middle school rolled to a 25-9, 25-13 victory over the Lady Raiders junior varsity team.
In the middle school match Katie Wanamaker and Taylor Johnson got hot from the service line and put the Lady Pioneers out in front 12-4 in the first game. Morgan Frye and Laura Beth McKinley step up in the second game and gave WCMS a 16-7 lead. Solid play by the Lady Pioneers in both games closed things out securing the victory.
?We had solid court play and communication by underclassman Blair Fisher and Caroline McKinley,? said coach Farrah Griffith. ?We had good efforts by our defense and the leadership from our setters, Laura Beth McKinley and Wanamaker kept the team focused.?
In the high school match, Mary Kate Fisher and Brittany Frazier got the Lady Pioneer offense going with 10 assists each. Fisher led the team in kills with 11 and Ashlee Malone added six. Malone also had four aces, three digs and 15 points on the day. Frazier and Megan Hobbs had 14 points each on the day and Lori Pepper came up with one block.
?This was a good test for us,? said coach Franklin Fisher. ?Everybody got on the floor for some much needed work, including all of our freshman. Malone and Fisher hit well and Pepper got some work at the middle-blocker position Frazier?s setting is getting smoother and we made improvements from the service line.?
Both teams were scheduled to take on Crossville on Thursday for another preseason scrimmage.
