DISTRICT 10-4A VOLLEYBALL: Poteet forces tiebreaker game with win over Newman Smith

Published: Thursday, October 25, 2012 9:43 PM CDT
The entire season came down to one match for Poteet.


For the Pirates, the mission was simple. A victory over Carrollton Newman Smith on Tuesday meant they would force a tie for fourth place and they would keep their playoff hopes alive.

The teams split the first two games, but Poteet dominated down the stretch for a 25-15, 23-25, 25-7, 25-12 victory.

The Pirates improve to 7-7 in 10-4A play and finish the season in a tie with Newman Smith for the fourth and final playoff berth. Because the two teams split the head-to-head series, they will meet on Friday at 7 p.m. at Highland Park High School to determine the final postseason spot where they will face 9-4A champion Frisco Centennial.

Highland Park completed its perfect run through district play to earn the 10-4A championship and the top seed in the playoffs, where they will meet Frisco Liberty.

Carrollton Creekview is the district runner-up and will take on Frisco Heritage, the third-place team from 9-4A in the opening round of the playoffs, while Forney will play Frisco in the bi-district round.
