TRURO:<\/strong> In a battle of well-matched teams, only one team could come away gold medal winners and unfortunately for the Lockview High Dragons girls volleyball team it wasn\u2019t to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Dragons lost a very hard-fought School Sport Nova Scotia (SSNS) Division 1 girls volleyball championship final to the CEC Cougars in Truro on Saturday afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lockview won the first set of the championship final 25-20, however CEC regrouped and took the second set 25-23.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the third set, CEC had the better advantage winning 15-11 to claim gold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Dragons earn silver for their effort, a good accomplishment for a team that has been together for quite awhile, including playing together with the Fall River Fury Volleyball club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lockview opened the two-day tournament with straight two set victories over Inverness (25-15, 25-210; and Parkview (25-11, 25-17); before falling to CEC in the final round robin game in three sets. They won the firsts et 25-20 but fell 15-14 and 15-9 in the second and third sets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n [adrotate group=”8″]<\/p>\n\n\n\n [adrotate banner=”146″]<\/p>\n\n\n\n That left them in second place in Pool A and meant a date with Citadel High in the semi-final. They won two sets to one to advance to the final, and a rematch with CEC for provincial gold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The bronze medal was won by Sydney Academy, who defeated Citadel High.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the gold medal game, LHS and CEC were very even and took turns trading the lead until the Cougars prevailed in the third set. <\/p>\n\n\n\n All of the Lockview players will be playing with the Fury Volleyball Club this season, although split between different Fury teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n [adrotate banner=”95″]<\/p>\n\n\n\n [adrotate banner=”84″]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [adrotate banner=”111″] [adrotate banner=”78″] TRURO: In a battle of well-matched teams, only one team could come away gold medal winners and unfortunately for the Lockview High Dragons girls volleyball team it wasn\u2019t to be.
