Sweet earns all-American

Two Davie track & field athletes competed in the AAU Junior Olympics at N.C. A&T.  Austin Sweet took fourth in the pole vault to earn all-American, clearing a height of 14 feet. He also competed in the 110 hurdles. The other War Eagle who qualified for the event, Kaden Cole, joined Sweet in the pole vault.

Davie volleyball starts 0-4

Davie’s varsity volleyball team saw heavyweight programs in the first two weeks of the season, and the result was the worst start/longest losing streak in 10 years.  Davie opened with a 3-0 home loss to East Surry, which was coming off a 25-3 record in 2023, on Aug. 13. Ashe County, which finished 21-4 last year, traveled to Mocksville and slipped away with a five-set win on Aug. 15. Davie lost 3-0 at South Iredell on Aug. 20. The fourth loss in four matches – at home to West Davidson on Aug. 22 – was close. The scores were 26-28, 22-25, 27-25, 26-24, 12-15.

This is Davie’s longest losing streak since an 0-5 start in 2014.

Davie’s JV dropped the first three matches before getting a much-needed win over West Davidson.
