The Winder-Barrow High School volleyball team took to the court for the first time in 2011 and emerged with needed match experience.

The Lady Bulldoggs played four matches at George Walton Academy in Monroe Saturday and by the end of the day had put a victory in the win column.”

“It was a good learning experience,” said WBHS coach David Rows. “We had five new players who had never been in a varsity match before. We weren’t really focusing on wins and losses. Our middle players did well and we had some nice blocks. Our defense still needs some work. We will work on coverage and passing from the back row.”

WBHS faced Walnut Grove, Monroe Area and George Walton Saturday before defeating Loganville in a close match which lasted three games.

“Our first match was tough because we were a little nervous,” Rows said. “By the end of the day, we were playing our best. It will take time. We may start a little slow early in the season, but we hope to be playing our best by the end of the year.
