Lexington sweeps River Bluff

By Thomas Grant Jr.

The county’s best volleyball rivalry resumed Wednesday at Lexington High School.

The Lady Wildcats and River Bluff met in the first of two Region 4-5A matchups. As part of Brest Awareness Months, the two teams also wore pink jerseys.

Lexington came out on top in three closely played-sets. The Lady Wildcats rallied from a 4-0 deficit to win set 1 25-25. They then took the next two sets by a 25-21 score to improve to 4-0 in the region.

The two teams will close out the regular season each other on Oct. 17 in The Swamp.
