The Great Comeback

Date: November 7, 2009

JACKSBORO - The Region 1 2A Quarterfinals started with Henrietta taking a demanding two game lead over Peaster. The Lady Bearcats looked sharp, were making good decisions and were on top of their game. The Lady Greyhounds started off shaky and didn't regain their composure until game three.

With their backs against the wall and one game away from going home for the year, the Lady Greyhounds stepped up their play and took games three 25-17 and game four 25-19. Peaster looked like a different team after the second game and their momentum continued until the last point. Senior, Courtney Haney finished with 21 kills and 23 assist. Skye Daugherty and Mary Hill both had double digit kills, while Randi Barnett contributed 26 assists.

Henrietta continued to play well and never gave up. With everything thing on the line in, game five played out to be a nail-biter for both teams.

Game five went back and worth with no demanding lead ever taken by either team. In the end, the Lady Hounds wanted it more and and won the final game 18-16.
