GOOD HOPE — The homestanding and defending champion Raiders took care of business — as did Holly Pond — on Day 1 of the Cullman County Volleyball Tournament.

Top-seeded Good Hope bested No. 4 Fairview (25-18, 25-14), while the No. 2 Broncos defeated seventh-seeded Hanceville (25-18, 25-11) before holding off No. 3 West Point (25-19, 24-26, 15-13) in a three-set thriller to set up a 5 p.m. showdown on Tuesday for a spot in the championship match.

In other action, Fairview knocked off No. 5 Vinemont (25-23, 25-18), West Point stormed past No. 6 Cold Springs (25-13, 25-15), and Cold Springs eliminated Hanceville (25-20, 25-13).

Despite losses, the Aggies, Warriors and Eagles — as well as Vinemont — remain in the title hunt entering Day 2.

Good Hope, meanwhile, is attempting to secure its second straight county crown.
