The Craig County volleyball team will have two home games as the Rockets look for their first win. The girls were scheduled to host Glenvar on Tuesday and on Thursday Parry McCluer comes to New Castle for the Pioneer District opener.
The Rockets had a home-and-home with North Cross to open the season last week and both games went to the Raiders. In the season opener, at Craig, North Cross took a 25-14, 25-16 and 25-17 win.
Layla Dooley had a kill, a block and four digs at North Cross while Cheyanne Bell had four aces and four blocks. Jenna Boitnotte had three aces, a kill and eight digs, Daileigh Donithan had three aces and a kill and Maggie Mays had four aces, four assists, two kills and a pair of digs.
On Thursday of last week the Rockets returned the trip to Roanoke County and again the Raiders came out on top, this time by scores of 25-8, 25-8 and 25-22.
Dooley had two kills, a block and three digs at North Cross. Bell had two blocks and two kills, Boitnotte had six digs and a pair of aces, Donithan had six aces, four digs and two kills while Mays had four aces and eight assists. Felicity Fisher had a game high five aces to go with two kills and three digs.
“Not a very good start to the season but the last game effort definitely shows progress and promise for the future,” said coach Suzanne Crawford.
