LONDON \u2014 Defending 13th Region champion Whitley County picked up another key 50th District victory Thursday night, rolling past South Laurel in straight sets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lady Colonels controlled the match from the start, winning by scores of 25-10, 25-12, and 25-19. The win improves Whitley County to 11-3 on the season, while the Lady Cardinals fall to 6-12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whitley County coach David Halcomb said he was proud of the way his team started strong and stayed locked in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur girls came out with a lot of focus tonight and we are beginning to start matches better, which wasn\u2019t the case earlier in the season,\u201d he said. \u201cThis was a big win for us with it being a 50th District matchup and I\u2019m proud of our girls. Our serving was really good in the first two sets, but cost us too many points in the third. These matches aren\u2019t about an opponent, as much as it is against ourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhen we play clean volleyball on our side of the net and don\u2019t have multiple unforced errors \u2014 we are pretty dang good,\u201d Halcomb added. \u201cThis team has a desire to play at a higher level and we are getting there \u2014 doing much better with the things we\u2019ve emphasized in practice the last two weeks.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
