LIPAN — The Wylie volleyball team is headed to the state semifinals for the first time as a Class 5A program after knocking off playoff nemesis Argyle 26-24, 18-25, 25-23, 25-16 in the Region I-5A Division II championship match on Tuesday to continue its historic playoff run.

The Lady Bulldogs, who reached the state tournament three times at the Class 3A level, winning the program’s lone title in 2013, are now just two wins away from their second state championship after knocking off the Lady Eagles, who ended each of their last two seasons in the regional semifinals.

The regional finals victory, Wylie’s 22nd win in a row, improved coach Shay Cox’s team to 38-4, earning it a state semifinals matchup with Region II champion Colleyville Heritage (37-7) later this week.
