Four county volleyball teams will see their seasons continue as they participate in the South Super Regional at the Cramton Bowl Multiplex in Montgomery.
Opp and Straughn will play on Wednesday and Thursday. Andalusia and Pleasant Home will play on Thursday and Friday.
In each class, the winner and runner-up of each area tournament will compete in one of two super-regional tournaments. Each super regional will use six courts, keeping the allotted 15 minutes between matches, and equitable playing time at each court for all tournament teams.
Play is single-elimination with a best 3-out-of-5 format. Each area winner will play a runner-up from another area in the first round of the bracket. The first four finishers in each super-regional tournament will advance to the state tournament next week. A consolation match will determine the third- and fourth-place teams.
Tickets must be purchased online through the AHSAA’s ticketing partner GoFan with admission set at $10 per day plus a convenience fee.
All area, super regional, and state tournament contests are the property of the AHSAA. Live streaming of any AHSAA event outside of the regular season is prohibited and will result in a $500 fine for any school that has a set/match streamed.
