    The Sweet Digs 12U volleyball team has been making waves in local tournaments, with impressive finishes in both the APC Tournament and the Tiger Mania Tournament.
    On Saturday the team showcased their skills and determination at the APC Tournament in New Braunfels, where they earned a third-place finish. This achievement marks a significant milestone for the young athletes, highlighting their growth and teamwork throughout the season. Earlier in the year, on January 19,  Sweet Digs 12U also had an impressive showing at the Tiger Mania Tournament in Seguin. The team secured second place, solidifying their position as one of the top contenders in the area.
    “The girls are improving every week. I am super proud of them.” Coach Lauren Pohler said. 
    The Sweet Digs 12U squad is known for their hustle and passion for the game. Players have shown significant growth since the start of the season, and the team’s success in these two tournaments is proof of that hard work. As they continue to build momentum, the team is focused on the road ahead, looking forward to more competitions and opportunities to showcase their abilities. 
    The girls will be heading to La Vernia this Saturday for the Hold Your Horses Tournament, in hopes of another impressive finish.
