With a draw against a top seed in the Class AAA state playoffs, the Dawson County Lady Tigers ended their volleyball season last Wednesday losing in three sets to Westminster on the road. In only the second year for the program, Dawson advanced to the state playoffs with a region tournament win over rivals Lumpkin County on Oct. 3. The seeding tournament put the Lady Tigers in at a No. 4 seed in the opening round on Oct. 11. Dawson traveled to Westminster and lost in three sets to a tough Lady Wildcat team: 25-9, 25-14 and 25-13.
