The beginning games for the Lady Tigers volleyball team are proving there will be many teams around willing to challenge their lofty perch. To sharpen their skills, the Lady Tigers schedule the top teams around to prepare for the long season. They opened with a doubleheader at Leander Rouse and Round Rock Westwood and moved on to Pflugerville Hendrickson. Each of those contests were highly competitive with close wins over Westwood and Hendrickson while dropping the game with Rouse. They spent the last weekend competing at the Pearland tourney. We will have those results in the next issue.
