Volleyball – Waller Sentinel

VOLLEYBALL Waller Sentinel | September 7, 2026 WALLER — The Waller Lady Bulldogs volleyball team is 14-11 after a 3-1 road win at Willis on Friday and will host Fulshear on Tuesday in the last major non-district date before league play. MaxPreps lists the varsity record at 14-11 (.560) and 0-0 in district. The Lady Bulldogs are 2-1 at home, 5-2 on the road and 7-8 on neutral courts. They carry a one-match winning streak into Tuesday night. Fulshear to be measuring stick The Willis result is the latest posted score. Waller went to Willis High on Sept. 4 and beat the Wildkats 3-1, moving a game over .500 after a long tournament stretch in August. The Chargers enter the week 16-8 and sit around No. 65 in the MaxPreps Texas rankings — a step up from most of Waller’s August slate and a useful measuring stick before district opens. How the early ledger looks The rest of the early-season ledger is now on the board. Waller opened with sweeps at Spring and Bryan on Aug. 11, then split a heavy tournament run that included losses to Cedar Ridge, Stony Point, Antonian Prep, Springtown, Weiss, Klein Cain, Klein Oak and Bowie, and wins over Vista Ridge, Cypress Ridge, Cypress Falls (twice), Klein Collins, Cypress Woods, Navasota, Cleburne, Hardin-Jefferson, Temple and London. Hardin-Jefferson was one of the cleaner midweek results — a 2-0 tournament win. Bowie edged Waller 2-1 on Aug. 29 to snap a short winning streak. District snapshot District play starts soon.
