The Princeton volleyball team came into Tuesday’s match at Prosper in search of its first District 6-6A win.
The Lady Panthers gave it their all, but the Lady Eagles, a Class 6A state semifinalist a year ago, proved too much in a 3-0 home win (25-17, 25-15, 25-15) over Princeton.
Senior Madisyn Robertson recorded a service ace to commence the match. A short time later, a kill by senior Grace Vrba tied the score at 2-2. Vrba spotted an ace on the ensuing point for a 3-2 Princeton lead. After the Lady Eagles scored the next two points, senior Taylor Crawford notched a kill for the Lady Panthers to tie the score at 4-4.
Robertson finished the night with five aces, three kills and 16 assists. Crawford notched six kills and two digs. Vrba added four kills.
However, Prosper finished the opening set on a 21-10 run, and the Lady Eagles went on to win the match in three sets.
Princeton (13-16, 0-7) is scheduled to return to action at 6:30 p.m. Friday night for a home match against McKinney Boyd.
