The Marion Bulldog volleyball team fell on the road Tuesday night at New Braunfels Christian Academy with the Lady Wildcats taking it in straight sets: 25-12, 25-14 and 25-15. Marion Coach Melissa Mitchell Schuetz said her team struggled with the pace of play the Lady Wildcats established at the onset of the match.

“They had a lot slower pace than us and we let that affect us in the beginning. We weren’t focused on our side, instead we were too worried about what was going on over there.”

Kylie Balderas had 5 kills. Ellery Twitero and Jaida Rideaux each had 2 blocks. Kacee McLendon lead the Bulldogs with 13 assists and Bristin Birdwell had 11 digs. Marion will open their district season Friday with a home match against Nixon-Smiley with a 7:30 first serve.
