The Lady Wildcats will face J.J. Pearce Tuesday night in volleyball’s regional quarterfinals, their third step on the road to state. The game will be played at 7:30 p.m. in Berkner’s gym.
Berkner was chosen as a neutral site for the game, but it may be lucky for the Wildcats. LHHS swept Irving MacArthur in the first round there before traveling to Glen Rose to defeat Copperas Cove in area playoffs.
Pearce beat Irving 3-0 in bi-district playoffs, then defeated Sachse 3-1 in the next round.
Tickets will only be available at the door ($5 for adults and $3 for students) and big crowds are expected for both sides. The Lady Wildcats have called a “blackout” game, so black Wildcat gear from head-to-toe is requested. Doors open at 6:30.
The winner of this game will play Lake Travis or The Woodlands Friday, Nov. 13 at Sam Houston State University in Huntsville.
Go Cats!
