DUNSMUIR – In between flashes of brilliance, the Dunsmuir Lady Tiger volleyball team showed their youth on Thursday night, as they fell, 3-2, to the Redding Adventist Lady Lumberjacks.
In the first set, it was Tiger brilliance that showed. Katie McIntyre, the lone senior on the squad, pummeled the Lady Jacks with seven kills, taking advantage of sweet setting by sophomore Jessica Hatten.
The set was close early, but with Dunsmuir holding an 11-8 advantage, frosh Chelsea Helms rotated to server and ripped an ace, making the score 12-8. Five serves later, including another ace, it was Lady Tigers 17 – Lady Jacks 8. After Redding Adventist added a couple of points, McIntyre went to work, with four kills in the final eight Lady Tiger points, as Dunsmuir went on to win 25-12. (more…)
