By David Rogers. BOONE, N.C. — A harbinger, perhaps, of things to come for the Watauga varsity later on, the Pioneers’ junior varsity swept McDowell, 2-0 (25-17, 25-20), on Sept. 18 in Lentz Eggers Gym.
While the encounter was well-contested by the visiting Titans, with early lead exchanges in the second set, Watauga eventually pulled away.
Now 13-0, the junior Pioneers are slated to play at St. Stephens (Hickory) on Sept. 23.
