Brewton-Parker College Women’s Volleyball opened the 2023 season on the road with a trimatch against Trinity Baptist (Fla.) and Toccoa Falls (Ga.) on Saturday.

The Lady Barons (11) split the day, opening with a sweep of Trinity Baptist (0-2) before following up with a tough loss to Toccoa Falls (2-0) in a 3-0 defeat.

“It was exciting to be able to get the season started,” Coach Obed Quiles said. “We struggled a little bit on the offensive side, but we played great defense. Time to get back to work and get better.”

Brewton-Parker opened with a sluggish first set against Trinity Baptist, yet finished off with a 25-21 win for the early lead. The Lady Barons took control of the second set and solidified a dominant 25-8 victory for a two-set advantage. BPC closed out the match with a secure win in set three, taking the final frame 25-16 for the sweep over the Eagles.

The Lady Barons challenged the hosts after the opening win and battled hard against the Screaming Eagles but fell just shy. In set one, TFC slipped past BPC in a 2522 victory before taking a 2-0 lead with a 25-19 win in set two. Toccoa Falls secured the sweep over Brewton-Parker with a 25-13 win in the third and final set.

The Lady Barons will be back in action next weekend when they travel to Brunswick, Ga., on Sept. 1-2 to compete at the Bash at the Beach hosted by Coastal Georgia.
