Our first Orange Panther of the Week for this academic year is Orange junior outside hitter Emma Clements. Last week, Orange won all three of its matches to start the 2018-19 academic year. That included two victories over South Granville, who won the 2A State Championship in 2015. In the first three games of the season, Clements had 51 kills, including 22 in Thursday’s win at South Granville. She also had six aces, seven blocks and 74 digs. Emma’s life is consumed by volleyball year-round. When she isn’t playing for the Lady Panthers, she’s usually on a volleyball court somewhere in travel ball. Orange returns to action on Monday night to host Eastern Alamance.
