Trigg County had played Caldwell County tough in two losses this year. They weren't able to make it over the hump in the third game as the Lady Tigers ended Trigg's season with a 25-10, 25-12 win in the semi-finals of the Seventh District Tournament Tuesday in Marion.
Caldwell County (29-5) will play Crittenden County (13-12) in Thursday's championship game. The Lady Rockets struggled past Livingston Central, dropping the first game 25-19 before rallying to win the last two 25-18, 25-15.
"The match was much closer than the scores would indicate. There were several long rallies with good digs by us. Unfortunately, Caldwell won most of those long rallies," Lady Wildcat head coach Rick Erickson said. "I am proud of how the girls kept fighting regardless of what the score was. Caldwell is one of the top teams in the region, and we competed with them. In the end, they just made more plays. I am pleased with the effort put forth by all of our players."
Trigg County's season is over with a record of 11-23 -- a three win improvement over last year. The Lady Wildcats are scheduled to lose just one full-time starter from this year's team due to graduation.
