Wednesday’s quarterfinals results are now complete following the late game outcome between Harding Academy and Little Rock Baptist Prep. In Wednesday’s last game of the session, it was the Lady Eagles of Baptist Prep defeating Harding Academy in impressive fashion, 3-0. Prep defeated Harding by the set scores of 25-7, 25-8, and 25-8, to advance to today’s semifinal round. Prep will play the Hackett Lady Hornets for one spot in Saturday’s state championship game.

The winner of the Hackett / Baptist Prep match will face the winner of the other semifinal match between Paris and Little Rock Episcopal. The Paris / Episcopal semifinal will be played today at 1 p.m. at Paris Gymnasium, and will be followed by the second semifinal game at approximately 3 p.m.

So, the final four teams in the state have now advanced to the semifinals, and any team in this group is certainly capable of not only winning today but winning the championship on Saturday. It should be a great afternoon of high school volleyball, and if you have not been out to watch the tournament this week, today would be a great day to do so.

Resident Press wishes all of the final four teams the best of luck today! And, of course, RP will have a recap of this important day in its online edition.

See you at Paris Gymnasium this afternoon!
