Sophomore Chloe Frizzell slammed 13 kills to lift Anderson to a 25-17, 26-24, 25-20 win over rival McCallum Tuesday night and moves within one game of clinching the District 24-5A championship.
The Trojans (20-10, 11-0) maintained control from the opening set and got contribution from every player on the roster. Brooklyn Vazquez and Kate Leakey had eight kills apiece, while Elaine Harrison put up 30 assists and Piper Poage and Julie Jedrzejewski finished with double digit digs with 12 and 11, respectively.
McCallum (25-11, 8-3) was led by senior Lexi Rosenblatt’s eight kills, 17 assists, and eight digs. Kafia Jackson-Woods also finished the night with eight kills, while Aaniya Thornton had a team high 21 digs. The Knights took a 13-5 lead in the second set, but the Trojans fought back to win the set 26-24.
All four playoff spots from 24-5A have been secured. Anderson and McCallum will be the Division I representatives. The Trojans will likely draw East View in the first round, while McCallum will take on Hendrickson. The playoffs begin on Oct. 30. Bastrop and Ann Richards will be the Division II representatives. The Bears and Stars will face either Georgetown or Weiss in the first round.
