For Notre Dame to win the District 7-AA high school volleyball tournament, it was almost as though the Lady Irish needed an extra spark; some hidden advantage; maybe a secret weapon.

Enter Stephanie Bouchard.

After missing about the last half of the regular season with an injury, Bouchard returned to the court Wednesday and helped the Lady Irish win the tournament title. They defeated Signal Mountain 3-0 by set scores of 25-22, 25-20, 27-25 in the championship match.

Beforehand they beat Chattanooga Christian 3-0 by scores of 25-20, 25-13, 25-12.

Signal’s Lady Eagles got to the championship match by defeating Grundy County 3-0 — 25-15, 25-21, 25-20. Notre Dame (12-17) and Signal Mountain will move on to the Region 4 tournament early next week.
