9-12-12 —     Wayne County Girls Volleyball had a memorable experience competing  in the Thoroughbred Smash in Lexington August 31-September 1.

    Wayne County defeated Ashland and Perry County Central both 2-0  Friday, August 31 to win their pool. Since the local team won their  pool, they got to play in the prestigious Gold Division of the  tournament.    They lost 1-2 to Woodford Co., 0-2 to Nelson County, and beat  Pikeville 2-0. So for the weekend they ended up 3-2.

    "Our goal was to win our pool and get into the Gold Division, which  includes the best teams in the tournament. Regardless of who we  played we wanted to play the best teams and compete to the best of  our abilities and we did just that. We came up short against Woodford  and Nelson but we competed and we got better," said Wayne County  Coach Sandra Baker.
