Series of unfortunate events leads to Prowler volleyball loss

A trip to Monahans didn’t quite go as planned for the Fort Stockton volleyball team on Oct. 4, as the varsity Prowlers dropped a district match in straight sets (25-19, 257, 25-21).

The loss moves the Prowlers record to 1-3 in district play.

Ivanna Ortiz recorded 20 digs defensively, while Alyssa Rangel dished out 10 assists and Eliana Mata added seven. Mia Garcia added five kills and Mata recorded four.

Amaya Urias and Garcia each recorded one block.

The junior varsity girls fell 25-17, 25-23.

“We played a great few sets, but were unsuccessful in getting over the hump of executing a solid offense,” assistant coach Sera Ramirez said.

Statistical leaders for the game include Priscilla Trevino with 15 kills and Jocelynn Arcides with seven kills, four digs and two aces.

The freshman played a hard fought three-set match, but were unable to secure a victory, as Monahans pulled off the 25-20, 18-25, 25-21 win.

The Prowlers will head back to the drawing board and gear up for their first home district game on Saturday, Oct. 8 against Andrews. Games are set to begin at 11 a.m. with varsity taking the court at noon.
