VB: Lady Riders outplay San Augustine, 3-1
Thursday, September 02, 2010

SAN AUGUSTINE -- The Center Lady Riders had to play 'smarter' volleyball, in the words of their coach, when they played the talented San Augustine ballclub Tuesday night. Smarter ball started with defense as Mario Valtierra and Suzanne Peace each posted seven digs apiece in a 3-1 Lady Rider win over the Lady Wolves here at Wolf Gymnasium.

The win was only the second of the year for Center (2-7), but it showed which direction the Lady Riders are going, according to the coach.

Center (1-7) will look to get back on track tonight when they host San Augustine. The junior varsity is set to get underway at 5 p.m., with the varsity to follow.
