Victoria West falls to Flour Bluff in key district volleyball match
VICTORIA, Texas — Victoria West's bid to knock off the top team in District 29-5A came up short Tuesday night as Flour Bluff earned a straight-set victory to strengthen its hold on first place in the district standings. The Warriors battled throughout the opening set despite playing from behind for much of the frame. West rallied repeatedly and eventually tied the score at 25-25, but the Hornets closed out the set with two consecutive points to claim a 27-25 victory. Flour Bluff carried that momentum into the second set, jumping out to a 9-2 lead. Victoria West was unable to overcome the early deficit as the Hornets secured a 25-19 win and moved within one set of the match victory. The Warriors continued to fight in the third set but never managed to take the lead. Flour Bluff maintained control throughout, building advantages of 18-13, 21-14 and 23-15 before finishing off the sweep and securing its position atop the district standings. Despite the loss, Victoria West remains firmly in second place in district play with a 9-2 record. The Warriors will close out the regular season Friday against Veterans Memorial before turning their attention to the postseason.
