Lady Tigers Regular Season Update!
Lady Tiger volleyball finished the regular season schedule in a flurry! After claiming the 4th place finish at the Kaysinger Conference tournament in Cole Camp, the Lady Tigers went on to beat Tipton and Otterville in the regular season schedule. They then travelled to the Versailles Invitational tournament where they finished 2nd in their pool with a tie against Marshall, a win against Linn, and a loss to Versailles. In the first round of tournament play, Lady Tigers faced Hallsville and lost in 2 sets.
With only a day of rest on Sunday, Lady Tigers returned to the practice gym early Monday morning to prepare for the final scheduled match against Smithton. And what a night of volleyball. Junior Varsity started the night off with a 26-28 1st set loss and continued the fight in the second set before losing 17-25 behind Abby Warners's 5 kills. Jellisa Atwood added 4 kills and Mallory Reed serviced for 3 aces.
In the Varsity match, Lady Tigers played an exciting defensive match keeping balls alive and transitioning to offense. Neveah Washington led the team with 17 kills and Kayley Goodman found kills down the line swinging for 8 kills. Matti Mergen, Santana Rivas, and Nevaeh all served for 4 aces each. Neveah also led the defense with 15 digs. Setters Matti Mergen and Sydney Gordon dished out 17 and 14 assists respectively.
The Varsity team finished the regular season with an overall record of 16-13-2 and was 7-3 in the Kaysinger Conference. CONGRATULATIONS on a well-played season of volleyball! Now they move into the post-season District play on Thursday night taking on the Lincoln Cardinals at 7:00pm in Osceola. Let's Go Tigers!!

Kaysinger Conference JH Tournament Update:
Rule change for moving forward tomorrow- any match that moves to the third set will be played to 15 instead of previous 25.
The Kaysinger JH Volleyball Tournament has been postponed for tonight due to power outage. The teams that were to play at 6 pm tonight (Windsor, Smithton, Tipton and Lincoln) will play at 8 a.m. tomorrow morning. The new, adjusted bracket will be sent out to schools and posted on our page when it is completed. Thank you for your understanding!
Congratulations to Wyatt Tucker (Elem) and Joshua Birch (JH/HS) for being selected as Green Ridge students of the month for September!
Wyatt is a great role model for other students. He works hard to be safe, respectful, and responsible. He follows school and classroom rules. He treats teachers and students with respect by listening in class and not disturbing others. He consistently turns his work in on time and is always willing to help others.
Josh has made great strides in his attitude, willingness to assist, and his interactions with other students. Josh has impressed me with his maturation as a young man. We have observed Josh outside of the normal school day (helping with concession stands, coming to extracurricular activities, etc.) and he has been more than willing to help students and staff do tasks around school.
