The Blythewood volleyball team wrapped up region play Tuesday night with a 3-0 (28-26, 25-9 and 25-9) win over Ridge View to become champions in region IV-4A. The Lady Bengals finish the year 35-5 overall and 10-0 in region play. After the game head coach Mary Hall could not have been more satisfied.
“This season has been amazing,” Hall said. “It’s been everything I wanted it to be.”
In the regular season finale, Blythewood was led in attacking by Abreia Epps with 11 kills. Meredith Jones and Dominique Williams added seven kills apiece. Gabby Martinez had a game-high 32 assists. Defensively, Epps had a team-high nine digs with BiJonae Jones chipping in seven.
The Lady Bengals will now look forward to the state playoffs, which start Tuesday. Blythewood is ranked #2 in the state and should host a home game in the first round. Hall believes her team is ready for the playoff atmosphere.
“This is a strong team,” she said. “The bonds are strong and hopefully we can continue to push through to the state championship.”
It is anticipated that Fort Mill is the team on the horizon for the Lady Bengals. Starting tomorrow you can check scprepcountry.com or maxpreps.com for a copy of the playoff bracket.
