Bushland proved it deserved to be the top-ranked team in the state. The Lady Falcons (26-2) entered Saturday’s Region I-3A Final having not dropped a set in their previous 14 matches and only losing 10 sets all season. That trend held true in Childress as Holliday (24-5) ran into the Bushland buzzsaw in a 3-0 (25-6, 25-13, 25-16) season-ending loss.

Bree Zellers was nearly unstoppable, collecting a team-high 15 kills as the Holliday Lady Eagles upset No. 9 Brownfield in a 3-0 sweep (25-17, 25-20, 25-22) on Tuesday, Nov. 10, at Jim Ned High School in Tuscola.

“Bree was on-fire,” Holliday head coach Wendy Parker said. “She missed a few serves, but as far as everything else, she was lights out.”

The No. 7 Lady Eagles (24-4) meet top-ranked Bushland (27-2) in the regional finals on Saturday, Nov. 14, in Childress at 5:30.
