Claire Beastrom had a big challenge facing off against 6-fcot, 4-inch
Alyson Fertig last Saturday in the Douglas quad. Every once in a while,

Lady Dogies having growing pains
Sonja Karp
NLJ Sports Reporter
It’s been a bit of a rough
start for the Lady Dogies as
the squad is adjusting to new
players and positions, and
last week, hitting and serving
errors plagued the team as they
went up against the Sundance
Lady Bulldogs at their house
on Thursday and traveled to
Douglas for a quad against
Burns, Douglas and Wheatland
on Saturday.
“In general, we had a lot
of hitting errors last week,”
sighed head coach Keeley
Anderson. “Serving was better,
but it’s still tough to win when
you’re giving away points with
hitting errors.”
In Sundance, the squad
really struggled to get into a
groove as a team, dropping
the match in three straight sets
12-25, 14-25, and 10-25.
“It was a rough match, and
a total team loss, because we
just didn’t come together,”
Anderson began. “We had a
little meeting the next day that
went pretty good. We were all
on the same page that we were
.. avers/km
pretty frustrated that we played
like last year when we were a
lot less experienced. We’re not
that team anymore.” '
Anderson gave credit to the
Lady Bulldogs team as well.
“Sundance won [the state
tournament] last year and they
didn’t have a lot of holes,”
she admitted. “If they did they
were quick to get there to cover
them up.”
Coming off the loss,
Newcastle faced the Big Horn
Lady Rams first on Saturday
in Douglas. Unfortunately,
they picked up where they left
off on Thursday with a pretty
slow start. On a brighter note,
however, as the match went on,
the squad began to pull things
together as evidenced by the
score of the sets in the match.
Big Horn did take the win,
sweeping Newcastle in three
straight sets, however the Lady
Dogies played progressively
better in each, losing 14-25,
21—25 and 22-25.
“Our serving hurt us in that
match, but other than that we
looked pretty good,” Anderson
declared. “I don’t feel like our
record for the day showed the

level of the game that we actu-

The fifth—ranked Douglas
Lady Bearcats were second on
the docket for Newcastle and
the ladies stepped up to face
the challenge.
“It was actually pretty him
to watch, and we were able to
beat them in one set, so that was
great,” Anderson exclaimed. “It
went by in a hurry and we
really dominated throughout it.
I didn’t use any timeouts, which
hasn’t happened so far.”
Getting to that dominating
set took a little time, however.
In the first set, Newcastle
gave away 20 points in missed
serves, missed hits and net vio-
lations and giving away that
many points in unforced errors
makes it impossible to win.
The third set was when the
Lady Dogies were able to put
together a solid effort picking
up the 25—20 win. Douglas
rallied to take the win in the
fourth set of the match.
The Bearcats’ big 6-foot,
4-inch hitter was moved from
the middle to the outside on
Saturday, so that gave the Lady
Dogies the opportunity to get

Tiernan Stanton and Jaylen
Ostenson opened up in the
middle. The outside hitters also
had more opportunities at the
net without her there for the
double block.
“Our right side adjusted
well, but they were pretty
intimidated to have her there
blocking them,” Anderson
chuckled. “I kept asking Claire
[Beastrom] to hit line and she
was pretty intimidated, but she
did try and that’s all I can ask.”
“The girls also did pretty
well blocking her on the outside
and Tiernan did a good job of
shutting down her opportuni—
ties,” Anderson continued. “We
had a joke thatiéthere is now
another Big Red in town.”
Finally, the team went up
against the Wheatland Lady
Bulldogszs the third match
of the day, both‘ squads were
pretty worn out, but Anderson
thought her girls hung in the
game pretty well.
“Our setters had run around
all day, so they were pretty
tired, so it was a little more of
a struggle,” she admitted. “Our
passers were doing a pretty
good job, but the setters had
kind of lost their legs by then I
so it was a little tougher for our
hitters then as well.”
Though Wheatland was
also a loss for Newcastle,
those sets were close — 19-25,
20-25, 19-25 — and Anderson
believes that they are defi-
nitely a beatable team.
“It was great for the girls
to see that they could contend
with those guys and it gave
us some things to work on
this week,” she nodded. “Our
main focus will be serving

and hitting as that is some-
thing we have been struggling
with so far this season. We
know we have to cut down on
our unforced errors and make
teams work for their points
instead of giving it to them.”
This week, things start to
ramp up for the squad as they
head into their first quadrant/
conference matches of the year.
The Lady Dogies will head to
Therrnopolis on Thursday and
then host Buffalo beginning at
2 pm. on Saturday afternoon,
which will also be the team’s
senior recognition for the year.
