SAN ANTONIO – Warren rallied past Taft 3-2 in a five-set district volleyball match Tuesday at Northside Gym.
Taft struck first in the opening set. Casyn Jefferson came up with the dig, Taylor Lee provided the setup and Farrah Ince finished the play with a powerful kill to give the Raiders an early 3-0 lead.
Warren responded by turning up the intensity. Gabriella Davila set up Kenya West, who delivered a kill for the Warriors.
The back-and-forth battle continued through five sets before Warren pulled away with the victory.
Warren is set to play Sotomayor at 6 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 4.
