Lady Pirates Slam Bozeman

The Lady Bucks of Bozeman were late getting to Sneads for their volleyball matchup on
Tuesday night. Given the results, they might have preferred just to have stayed in Bay County for the evening. The Lady Pirates volleyball squad sent the visitors back to the coast after sweeping all three games against the Lady Bucks.

Game one went to Sneads as they quickly jumped out to a 4-0 lead with Kara Alford serving. Becca Aaron stepped to the serving line moments later with the Lady Pirates leading 5-1. When she was through serving Sneads held a 15-1 lead. Along the way Alford and Jordan Jackson were racking up the kills. Alford finished up the game with a tap over and a service ace to give Sneads a 25-7 win. In game two the Lady Pirates again jumped out early. Aaron racked up five service points and Jackson racked up several more kills. Brandy Strickland got several service points and Sneads held a 13-2 lead. Alford and Jackson took turns firing shots at the Lady Bucks and Sneads came away with a 25-10 win.

In game three coach Shelia Roberts put in a few of the back up Lady Pirates and Bozeman keep this game close. Alford and Yonna Bell each had five service points but Bozeman battled back to get within 3 points (18-15). Alford and Jackson returned to the floor and the party was over for Bozeman as Sneads outscored them 7-1 to take a 25-19 win.

Aaron led the Lady Pirates from the service line with 21 service points. Alford had 9 kills on the night and Jackson had 8. With the win Sneads improved to 3-1 on the season and 3-0 in the district. The Lady Pirates will be back in action on Thursday night when they play host to district rival Blountstown.
