The Freshman Arabians continue to improve as they face tough opponents. Last week they faced Crystal City and Fredericksburg and went 1-1 against them. “After defeating Crystal City on Tuesday we took a tough loss to a good Fredericksburg team on Friday. Overall, I saw good things in both games this past week. I hope the girls keep up the hard work and we continue to bring everything together to prepare for district play,” said Coach Kara Stacy.
Tuesday night against Crystal City, serving was key to the Arabians win. Racking up 18 aces against the Javelinas, the Arabians won 25-4 and 25-8. This was a very motivating win for the young team.
Charlee Rangel 3 digs, 4 aces. Oakley Malone 7 assists, 3 aces. Katie Rios 2 digs, 1 kill. Yaya Rodriguez 1 kill. Abby Saunders 1 dig. Brooke Thompson 1 kill. Kenzie Savage 1 dig, 1 kill.

Friday in Fredericksburg, the Freshman came out strong but lost the match 17-25 and 25-21. As a team they dug out 22 balls and earned 6 kills. It was a great learning game against the larger 4A school.
