The Lady Defenders closed out their regular season home schedule this week with two more wins, raising their season record to 21-11. Bryan Station finished strongly to defeat Grant Co. 3-1 last Friday night, (24-26, 25-9, 25-12) and followed up that performance Tuesday on Senior night with a 2-0 win over Madison Central, (25-20,25-21). On an emotional night, the team honored their six graduating seniors and their parents. We would like to give a big thank you to these fine young women and their families for all their hard work and dedication to the volleyball program . Our Seniors are Tia Blakeman, defensive specialist, Surya Sandusky, outside hitter, Elizabeth, (Izzy), Stone, middle blocker/hitter, Nealy Williams, middle blocker/hitter, Lisa Zangari, defensive specialist, and Coya Jackson, scorekeeper. It has been fun watching this group grow together as they have matured, competed and contributed to the success of their team and their school.  Well done, Ladies!! 

                The win over Madison Central completed a 6-0 sweep this season for Bryan Station over their three District 42 rivals with 2 wins apiece over Madison Central, Madison Southern, and Berea. The Lady Defenders will finish out the regular season this coming week with two tough road tests at Woodford Co. and Pulaski Co. completing  their final tune-ups before hosting the upcoming District 42 tournament.
