The 8th grade North girls also claimed third place after an intense, three-set battle against Colleyville Heritage. The first set ended in a close 27–29 loss, but the Cougars fought back to take the second set 25–23. In the third and final set of their middle school careers, the team showed heart and determination, closing out the match 15–13 to seal the win. Annabelle Ross led the tournament with 27 kills and 8 aces, while Brylee Felix added an impressive 21 kills and 9 aces.
