Congratulations to the 8th grade lady dawgs for clobbering Columbiana last night in 2 straight games 25 – 18. Allie Tryon led all servers with 15 out of 17 serves and 11 of those were in a row to clinch the first victory.  Alyssa Craig also scored a kill and served 1 for 1 from the line.  It was a total team victory for Montevallo.  Way to go girls.  The next home game will be Tuesday at 5 vs. West Blocton.  Come support the Lady Dawgs!!

The 7th grade team fought hard and won the first game 28-26 but fell short in a 25-19 score for second game and ultimately lost a nail biting match in a 17-15 tie-breaker game.
