Aug. 21—It's been a steady climb for the Austin Black Bears under head coach April Marsh.
After making the state semifinals in her second season, they took the first step on their next journey upward on Thursday night, sweeping West Morgan 25-13, 25-19, 25-18.
"We have been working a lot on our first contact over the summer. Serve receive and defense, I thought we did a pretty good job with that today," Marsh said. "I felt like we were in system most of the game."
Last year, Austin started off the season with a two-set win over West Morgan where it rallied in both sets. It ended up going 45-9 and made the state tournament for the first time since 2004.
This year, it didn't have to rally.
