In pool play last Saturday, the Pickens High School Lady Blue Flame junior varsity volleyball team, pictured above, defeated Riverside and Blythewood, but lost to Lexington, which placed them in the silver bracket. They were defeated by Dorman in the silver bracket. “The ladies played hard, and we are very proud of them,” coach Pamela Clarkson said. “We competed against some top 5A schools. The future is looking good for PHS.” Pickens’ Madison Gentry, pictured at right, was named to the All-Tournament Team.
