They wanted to carry this momentum into their next game which would be on their home court in front of their home fans.
Vs. Flatonia, W, 3-0 (25-19, 25-23, 25-12) In their second district game the Ladycats enjoyed home court advantage against a a quality opponent. The Ladycats kept their brooms handy and were able to sweep Flatonia out of the building for their second district win this week.
They opened up the match with two sets that really could have gone either way. Both teams were scoring at will and no lead was safe in the first two sets.
The Ladycats were able to capture some late momentum towards the ends of these sets and walked away with a 25-19 and 25-23 win in the first two sets. Then in the third set the Ladycats defense did not let the Flatonia offense breathe as they held them to only 12 points and secured a win in the final set.
