The Conway Lady Cats improved to 2-0 in 7A-Central volleyball play
and 7-2 overall as they swept the Lady Panthers, 25-21, 25-20, 26-24 in Cabot on Tuesday.

Sophomore Madison Dayer led the Lady Cats with 15 kills. Senior Payton Hart led the team in aces with four while Junior Chelsey Hess had a team-high 16 digs.

“I was very excited about tonight's win, a good win," Conway coach Laura Crow said. " I was really just hoping we could pull out that third game, and we did."

The Lady Cats had to work for that last game of the match but eventually pulled it out after Cabot tied it, 24-all, to give Conway a mild scare.

“Then we fought it out and were able to come away with the win,” Crow said.

Even though the Lady Cats got the victory, Crow still pointed out a few faults that her team will try to eliminate as the season progresses.

“Our offense has been a little inconsistent in games and we need to work on that,” she said.

The Lady Cats return home Thursday where they will try to remain unbeaten in conference play against Russellville, the only league team to beat them last year. The match is scheduled to start with the junior varsity contest at 4:30.
