It’s a new season for Suwannee volleyball and a new district. Coach Cissy Witt said the district would be tough this year and she was right. After two district matches, the Lady Dogs are 0-2 in district play. But there is hope. The Lady Dogs won one game of the four played in the match and lost the other three.

Suwannee fought hard in the first game, coming back and trying hard for the win. The Lady Dogs lost the first 17-25, won the second 25-20, lost the third 12-25 and lost the final game 20-25.

Cortney Benson, Suwannee’s new setter, had nine service points, four of them aces, and nine assists.

Alex Camunas had five kills, three assists and two blocks.

Nikki Reed had seven service points, two of them aces, one kill and two assists.

Jasmine Jefferson had three kills and four service points. Stephanee Skipper had two kills, four service points, one of them an ace, and one assist.
