Volley Dawgs Do It Again
The girls’ volleyball team crush the Defenders, winning 3 out of 4 sets and coming out on top once again.
The atmosphere on Sept. 16 game was ripe with determination as both Dunbar and Bryan Station were revving up to win.
The game started off with Dunbar having a 3 point lead until Bryan Station was able to get 2 consecutive points. With a kill from #15 Isabella Haggard, the Dawgs cheering section erupted into a chant targeted at Bryan Station’s section.
“She’s a freshman!”
The back and forth between the two sections continued throughout the game, as it seemed neither group was willing to give the other the last word. Both continuously used the other’s chants against each other with a common one being, “We can’t hear you” in retaliation to each other’s “Let’s go Station” or “Let’s go Bulldogs” alike.
On the court, the competition was heating up. With several more kills from Dunbar’s #8 Ava Jackson, #1 Ila Smith, and #24 Nyla Gains. These were accompanied by a setter dump from #6 Campbell Gash, full of aces and blocks.
The Defenders weren’t backing down, however, and had several kills from #23 Mia Signs, #30 Cameron Owens, and #25 Kiara Henderson also accompanied by blocks and aces.
Bryan Station won the first set 22-25 with blocks by #11 Izabella Carter #11 and #22 Sidney Eaves.
