Ozark preparing for second season on volleyball court
By Buck Ringgold
A year ago at this time, the Ozark volleyball program was still in the process of preparing to play its inaugural season.
This off-season, second-year coach Kelsey Webb hasn't had to spend much time on basics. Instead, she has been working with the Lady Hillbillies on more match-specific situations.
"It's been completely different (this off-season)," Webb said. "Last year, we were still learning the game, learning skills, the very, very basics.
"This year, we're taking a step forward and we're kind of not necessarily perfecting those basic skills, but we're getting a lot better to where we can go over more specific things that can happen in a match or just other things that we don't have to work on the basic individual skills for the game, so that's been really, really exciting."

Prep standouts take the field this weekend

One of my favorite work weekends of the summer arrives Friday and Saturday with the annual Southwest Elite Classic 7-on-7.
It's a good time to check out the flavor of local high school teams. Usually, a few Razorback prospects are on hand at fields at Shiloh Christian, Springdale and Fayetteville high schools.
While it may not be 11-on-11 football, it serves a purpose, per Shiloh Christian head coach Jeff Conaway.
