Varsity Volleyball

The Warriors varsity volleyball team dropped a hard-fought 3-2 decision to Cary Academy in the home opener Tuesday. St. David’s (3-3) lost the first set, then battled back for a 2-1 lead with 25-20, 25-19 victories. The Chargers rallied for a 25-21 fourth set win, then took the tiebreaker, 16-14. “We didn’t earn enough points,” said coach Romel Lightbourn. “We scored off their mistakes, but couldn’t get enough points from our offense. We need to play better defense and mentally prepare to be ready to play from the first point.” St. David’s is back in action Wednesday at Fayetteville Academy.
