The seventh grade girls "B" team lost to Comfort in close sets. Bandera was led by Mylaa Cromwell and Rebekha Gomez.
In seventh grade "A" team action, the Lady Bulldogs made several runs of five or more points and communicated well together. The crowd went wild watching Bandera, led by Hannah Halsey, Samatha Sardo and Jessi Battle, shut Comfort out in straight sets, 2-0.
The girls would like to share a special thank you to the Boy’s coaching staff for their support for their first game. They would also like to thank the seventh graders present for being loud, supportive and showing up to cheer on their classmates.
The eighth grade "B" team also won in straight sets, 25-12 and 25-14, in spite of first game jitters. Strong serving and disciplined defense helped Bandera cruise to a quick win.
In eighth grade "A" team action, Bandera took the win in three sets. After winning the first set 25-21, Comfort took the second set, 25-19 to force a third set.
