On Tuesday, the Lady Royal Lions welcomed the Carrollton School of the Sacred Heart to the Don Bosco Arena. In what was a very competitive match, Lady Royals won the first two sets, 25-22 and 26-24. Unfortunately, Carrollton came back to win the next three sets.

The Lady Royals finished the week on Thursday by bouncing back from tough losses with a win against Colonial Christian.
