Varsity volleyball tied for 3rd in CPC

One day later in a home nonconference match, the War Eagles lost in five sets to Grimsley. A match at Reynolds was the third in three days, and Davie rolled in three sets. The War Eagles (6-8 overall) entered the week tied for third in the CPC, with Reagan 8-0, West Forsyth 5-1 and Davie/East Forsyth tied at 5-3.

Davie’s junior varsity did the same thing, beating Glenn and Reynolds and losing to Grimsley. The JV is 9-5 overall and 7-1 in the CPC.

Reagan, Tabor shut out Davie soccer 

Davie’s varsity soccer team was blanked twice last week in CPC play, losing 3-0 to Reagan and 5-0 to Mt. Tabor. Both games were at home. The losses left Davie 4-6-2 overall and 0-3 in the CPC.

The JV was shut out both times as well. The 3-0 setback to Reagan stopped Davie’s longest winning streak (four) in six years. Two days later, Davie (4-3-1, 1-2 CPC) fell 1-0 to Tabor.
