Ladyjackets pound PTAA for bi-district crown
The Coolidge volleyball team advanced to the area round of the playoffs for the first time in more than five years with a three-set sweep over Greenville Pioneer Technical Arts Academy (PTAA) in a bi-district match at Kemp on Monday. The Ladyjackets rolled to a 2511 victory in the opening set. They used a late surge to win the second set, 25-17, and finished it off with a 25-10 win in round three. Coolidge will host Abbott at 5 p.m. Thursday in a Class A area round match. Trailing 5-3 in the opening set, Coolidge scored 10 consecutive points and, after PTAA scored a point, came back with an eight-point run to take a commanding 21-6 advantage.
