Watauga sophomore Lilli Combs’ 14 digs accounted for much of the Pioneers defensive effort but her 12 assists were also a team high in setting up outside hitters Athena Elliott (8 kills), Gracyn Blanton (7 kills) and Rylee Mitchell (6 kills, 2 service aces). Setter Ava Zaragoza registered two service aces and contributed 8 assists to complete the statistical highlights of the match.
