Calhoun County, AL – Alexandria top seed, Oxford No. 2 seed, Ohatchee No. 3 seed headed into Calhoun County Tournament, set for Oct. 7-9.
By Joe Medley
Two-time defending champion Alexandria (21-3) will carry the top seed headed into the Calhoun County volleyball tournament.
The county’s coaches also voted Oxford (19-5) the No. 2 seed and 2022 runner-up Ohatchee (17-6) No. 3 during Wednesday’s seeding meeting at White Plains High School.
Alexandria coach Whitney Welch called seedings “just a number.”
“We still have to play the tournament,” she said. “We’re just really focused on getting better, doing what we’ve got to do to continue our growth, and stuff. Again, it’s just a seeding. If we start looking at the seeding, it’s not going to be a good thing.
“Of course, we’re excited, and I do feel like it’s right. Again, it’s only what we’ve done so far and not the future.”
Below are seedings and a tournament schedule.
