ATHLETE OF THE WEEK: Tyne Ross

Union Pines, volleyball, tennis

Tyne Ross is a two-sport senior for Union Pines, and that’s just in the fall.

Ross is pulling double duty on the Vikings Volleyball and Women’s Tennis teams.

Last week, she had 26 kills, 3 blocks and 25 digs in Union Pines’ loss to Pinecrest. That was Tuesday. Wednesday night, she won first singles, 6-0, in Union Pines’ 6-0 tennis win over Scotland. Thursday, she had to choose between sports, since both teams had a game. She went with the tennis team and posted a straight sets win in first singles, 6-0, 6-3, in a 7-2 loss to Seaforth.

For the year, Ross, who is committed to NC A&T to play volleyball, is 9-0 in tennis singles and 6-0 in doubles. She also leads the volleyball team in kills, digs and hitting percentage.
