After taking its lumps in the early going, the Davie JV volleyball team is red hot.
The War Eagles took down visiting Reagan in two sets on Sept. 3.
“The JV looked good,” varsity coach Amber Brandon said. “They have been working really hard in practice and have some kids that are really starting to have some success.”
Brandon pointed to Alyssa Hinson, Hayden Gavura, Riley Freeman and Hailey Davis.
“Alyssa is playing really well,” she said. “She’s seeing the court well and really developing a good sense for where to score and how to score.
“Hayden is not only playing well but has developed into a six-rotation player over the offseason and is a really strong leader on the court. It’s really important to the JV team that she can be on the floor all the time.
“Riley and Hailey are two freshman that have been really big difference-makers right from the beginning.”
Two days later, the War Eagles (6-3 overall, 4-0 CPC) extended their winning streak to six with a 2-1 home win over Mt. Tabor.
Although Davie stubbed its toe in the second set, the more gifted team prevailed without much trouble.
“We won 25-10 the first set and just made a lot of communication errors in the second set,” Brandon said. “But they did a great job of pulling it back together and taking care of what they needed to do in the third.”
