Hitting the road to take on their arch-rival Minutemen of Franklin Road Christian School, the Temple Baptist Christian School volleyball team visited Murfreesboro on Saturday. The Lady Eagles got off to a fast start as they won the first 2 sets. Franklin Road rallied back to sweep the last 3 sets and grab the 3 to 2 victory. Temple fell by set scores of 25-21, 25-17, 22-25, 13-25 and 11-15.
After consistently stringing together points in the first 2 sets, the Lady Eagles opened the 3rd set with 5 straight side outs. Temple could never get on a point rally of more than 4 points in the final 3 sets. The JV Lady Eagles(grades 7 thru 9) fell in straight sets 20-25 and 19-25.
Temple will be back in action on Tuesday when they travel to Tunnel Hill, Georgia for a doubleheader. The Lady Eagles will take on host Dogwood Christian at 4:30 PM followed by a match with Rhea County Academy at 5:30 PM.
