Aerial Williams
In what has become an annual tradition, the Coffee County Lady Raider volleyball team played host to Eagleville on Wednesday afternoon in front of the CHS student body. Wednesday’s match also lived up to the tradition of a hard fought battle as each game went down to the wire. In the end, the visiting Lady Eagles claimed a 3 set sweep over Coffee County with set scores of 19, 18 and 23.
All 3 sets were close from start to finish as Eagleville was able to string together enough consecutive points to escape with the win. Coach Andrew Taylor was pleased with his team’s effort. “We played well but did not win enough of the long rallies” said Taylor. “Those were 3 competitive games and they were able to make the plays and put more shots away” added Taylor.
Coffee County continued their strong front line play as Aerial Williams had 3 blocks. Baylee Nester added a block and led the team in kills with 6. Bailey Morgan added 4 kills and led the team in assists with 8. Tyana Fenton led Coffee County in digs with 20.
The Lady Raiders return to district action on Thursday when they welcome Shelbyville to the Joe Frank Patch Memorial Gym. First serve is set for 6 PM.
