Class 1 teams open state bids The third-seeded Bulldogs, according to the seedings, pulled off two upsets to win the District 7 Tournament at Billings.
Wheaton, runner-up to Exeter in the Ozark 7 during the regular season, beat the second-seeded Tigers in the semifinals and No. 1 Verona for the title. Starters for Wheaton are seniors Brooke Forgey, Haley Goostree and Brittney Peters; junior libero Samantha Pierce; sophomores Kelli McCracken and Elizabeth Shockley, and juniors Mica Tichenor or Sarah Weatherman. Veteran Wheaton coach Tracy Prigg, who’s assisted by Terri Priest, said that sophomore Ranysha Pierce completes the roster. Eminence has lost to Lebanon, Willard and Lesterville. Lockwood vs. Sparta The Tigers, coming off their 22nd district title and 10th in a row, defeated the Trojans earlier this season. Coach Cheryl Shores, who’s assisted by husband Mike, has won a state title (40-1 in 2004) and logged a third and two fourths during her remarkable career at Lockwood — head coach except for one year — that began in the fall of 1980. Five seniors start for Lockwood — Katee Flynn, Bekah Ogden, libero Hannah Ross, Rochelle Wallen and Sophie Whitesell. Juniors Carrie Lovercamp and Katie Shaw complete the alignment and another junior, Charlina Bough, comes in on the front row. Junior Jessica Julian and sophomore Libby Singleton round out the varsity roster.
