Conroe falls to Tomball in their home opener
CONROE, Texas - After a 26-24 win over the Tomball Lady Cougars in set one of Monday night's match, the Conroe Lady Tigers lost the next three 18-25, 18-25, 22-25, in their 2015 home opener.
The 8-2 Lady Tigers dominated Tomball at the net, collecting 14 blocks to Tomball's 4, despite being the smaller team. The biggest thing that haunted Conroe was unforced errors.
Tomball, coming into the 2015 season as the defending District 19-5A champions, collected 53 kills to Conroe's 31 and 11 aces to Conroe's 6.
Sophomore Jazzmin Kim and Senior Kendra Butler led Conroe's attacking with 9 kills each. Butler also had 6 blocks, and sophomore Jozey Rodel led the team with 8. Junior libero, Blaklea Nettles had the team high in digs, with 11.
Conroe's next match will take place in the Aldine ISD tournament on Thursday against Aldine Davis.
