Size doesn't matter. Ultimately, it's all about heart and fight. Experience in big battles helps, too, and the Class 3A Holliday volleyball team has it all.The Lady Eagles beat Class 5A Wylie 26-24, 18-25, 25-13 in the championship game of the Bev Ball Classic on Saturday at Abilene High's Eagle Gym.'It feels good,' said Holliday coach Wendy Parker, a 1985 Snyder grad. 'We were second here last year, so it feels good to finally win it.'Bushland beat Holliday in the tournament championship last year, and the eventual state champions also beat Holliday in the Region I-3A finals later in the season for the second consecutive year.
