Jacksboro VB sweeps season opener

Jacksboro and Bryson opened their volleyball seasons with wins over Breckenridge Tuesday evening in a three-team match.

Jacksboro remained perfect for the day with a five-game win over the Cowgirls to close out the evening. Summaries of all three matches follow:

Jacksboro 25-17-25-27, Breckenridge 15-25-20-25

The Tigerettes avenged losses the two previous years to the Buckaroos with the win, Coach Rosana Barbosa’s first at the helm.

A Carly Hart pair and three points from Baylee Anderson staked the Purple to a 12-7 lead in game one but it was Trinity Tisdale’s six-point string, including back-to-back aces to end game one, which enabled the hostesses to pull away.
