August 26, 2011

After dropping a season-opener against Forbush, the Fred T. Foard volleyball team is on a roll.

The Lady Tigers (4-1, 1-0) won their fourth straight volleyball match Thursday with a 25-14, 25-16, 25-13 win against the visiting Lincolnton Lady Wolves.

“This was the best we’ve played this season,” said Foard coach Alison Yount. “They played like a real volleyball team. I was proud of them. They did a really great job.”

Leading the way for the Lady Tigers were Olivia Purvis and Madison Hayes, who had seven kills each.

“Our hitters worked,” Yount said. “We were covering. Our passes worked to target. Our setters worked hard. Everything just clicked today.”
Chelsea Hoyle had three blocks, Rebecca Scott had 12 assists and Kaitlin Sigmon had 29 digs.
