  • Lady Vols hoping to improve on...

    Seventeen wins in a softball season would be a banner campaign for most high school teams, but not for the Andrew Jackson Lady Volunteers.

    The Lady Vols of veteran coach Steve Middleton went 17-9 last spring, but he noted “that’s our first non 20-win season in quite a while.”

    For the Lady Vols to get back to that 20-win plateau, Middleton said AJ must play tough defense.

    The 2009 Lady Bruins’ soccer team established a winning aggressive style of play that has been firmly implanted and is bearing fruit with the 2010 squad.

    The tradition started by those seniors has shaped the 2010 Lady Bruins soccer team into an aggressive, intense and charismatic group. The LHS girls won the Chester Preseason Tournament for the second straight season.

    The 7-0 Lady Bruins have played well in the non-conference schedule and opened region play with a convincing 7-0 home victory over South Pointe on Tuesday.

    INDIAN LAND Indian Land High School baseball coach Alan LeRoy is hoping the second time around holds better days this season.

    The Warriors were 5-12, 4-7, seeing their postseason hopes fade in a 4-2 loss to county foe Buford to decide the Conference III-A fourth-place qualifier.
