Chuckey-Doak sophomore Jacey Taylor was dominant in nearly every aspect of the game this season, and as a result she was named to the Tennessee Sports Writers Association’s Class AA Volleyball All-State team.
Taylor helped the Lady Black Knights reach unprecedented heights this season. They reached the region championship game for the first time in decades and then advanced to the state tournament for the first time in program history. After defeating Upperman 3-1 the Lady Black Knights won at the state tournament for the first time ever.
Taylor’s excellent play throughout the rotation was a big reason why Chuckey-Doak reached such historic success. She finished the season with 468 kills and was named to the All-State team as an outside hitter. She served up 75 aces with a 87 percent serve percentage. She had 418 digs, 22 blocks and 34 assists as well.
Taylor was named the District 1-AA Player of the Year, and named to the All-District 1-AA and All-Region 1-AA Tournament teams.
