Volleyball update

The Cowley College volleyball team will host its district tournament Saturday, and will advance to the nationals if they win the tournament.

Cowley will now turn its attention to hosting the District N Tournament on Saturday. The Lady Tigers will face Allen County (16-19) at 10 a.m., while Butler (26-10) and Coffeyville (23-17) will square off at noon. The winner of the day’s first two matches will play in the championship match at 2 p.m., with the winner advancing to the national tournament in Wisconsin Dells, WI.

Cowley lost at Johnson County a week or so ago, but Johnson is a huge rival and also a top-five team. The two could meet again at the nationals. The first time Cowley went to the nationals they played Johnson County in the finals in Arizona. Cowley has returned to the nationals every year since then. I believe this is the sixth year if they make it.

Cowley should win, but you never know. Cowley has beaten all three teams during the regular season.

Come on out and support the team on Saturday.
