On Monday, August 26, the 3A Waldron Lady Bulldogs hosted the 4A Arkadelphia Lady Badgers. Last season when these two volleyball greats met up on the court, it was the Lady Bulldogs who saw the losing side of things. This time around though, Waldron changed the ending. In a smashing 3-0 defeat, the Lady Bulldogs hung tough in this thriller of a match and escaped with a scorecard that read 25-19, 25-22, and 31-29.
Although this was a non-conference game, it was the perfect indicator of how much the Lady Bulldogs have grown and developed in their volleyball skills since last year and the foretelling of what’s to come. “We had a great game against Arkadelphia,” expressed Coach Toby Hollin. “Overall, we were solid on offense, as well as on defense! This game was a nail biter for sure. The girls worked out several kinks from the week before, and we look forward to traveling to West Fork for our next match.”
On Tuesday, September 3, the Lady Bulldogs will travel to West Fork in their first conference game of the 2019 season, to take on the Lady Tigers with a 4:30 p.m start time.
