LOCAL SPORTS IN BRIEF

VOLLEYBALL

Kilgore in tourney today; Sabine Saturday

The Kilgore High School varsity volleyball team is playing in a tournament at Tyler Lee High School in Tyler today and on Saturday.

Today was pool play for the Lady Bulldogs, who were to face Mabank at 1:45 p.m., T.K. Gorman at 3 p.m., and then Lee at 5:30 p.m. When and whom the Lady 'Dogs face Saturday will depend upon how they do in pool play today.

KHS is 3-5 on the season, and hasn't yet played at home. They'll do that on Tuesday, facing Marshall, beginning with freshmen at 5 p.m. The Lady 'Dogs will also be at home next Friday against Hallsville at those same times.

Sabine High School also plays this weekend, taking part in a one-day tournament at Gladewater on Saturday. The Lady Cardinals will open the tournament at 8 a.m. Saturday against Rusk, and games thereafter will depend upon that first result.

Sabine also hosts Overton on Tuesday at 5:30 p.m.
