MCKEE — The defending 13th Region champion Whitley County Lady Colonels improved to 3-0 thanks to a 2-0 win over Jackson County on Monday.
The Lady Colonels slipped by the Lady Generals, 26-24, in the first set before wrapping up a 25-15 win in the second set.
“Glad to get the win up here at Jackson County, but not real pleased with how we played,” Whitley County coach David Halcomb said. “We just aren’t clicking right now. We had way too many unforced errors in the first set and wasn’t real good defensively either. I knew coming in that Jackson County had played twice as many matches as we have, and got a lot of play in over the weekend.
“They have a good team,” he added. “We have the potential to play at a really high level, we just aren’t doing it right now. I’m confident in my girls. We will figure it out and get back to where we need to be. Tomorrow’s match with CHAT will be good for us.”
Whitley County will be back in action Tuesday at home at 5:30 p.m. against Cumberland Homeschool Athletic Teams.
