Tate was joined by Brett Young, the head volleyball coach for the Nolensville Lady Knights, on this segment of High School Sports Saturday. Following brief Fourth of July pleasantries, the two discussed how local teams navigate the summer dead period. Coach Young emphasized the importance of resting his heavily scheduled club players, noting that after the break, the team will resume practice in mid-July. He detailed that preseason camps are slated for early August, with the Lady Knights’ first official match scheduled for August 17th.

The conversation then shifted to the high level of competition in Williamson County and Nolensville's promising roster. Coach Young shared his excitement about returning eight of his top nine rotation players from last year, praising the skills of senior ETSU commit Taylor Collins and the team's two returning setters, Avery Ethridge and Sadie Demming. They also touched on the formidable local volleyball landscape, recognizing the historic strength of Brentwood and Ravenwood while agreeing that Franklin looks to be the district favorite this year.
