GREAT START

The Varsity Volleyball Team is currently 4-1, with the one loss against St. Elizabeth Seton. The best part of watching this team play is that they attempt to play "Power Volleyball." With every serve-receive, they attempt to pass, set and kill the ball. These girls are doing a phenomenal job and we're so incredibly proud of them!

The JV Girls are also doing a wonderful job! Ms. Hoppe's energy and enthusiasm is contagious. These girls have such a positive spirit........they are going to go places!! They are improving with every match, too! What is refreshing to see is that they are also playing "Power Volleyball." Many of the teams that they play against, simply hit the ball over on the first hit. This will help win games right now, but in the long run, our girls will be much more successful. We are looking forward to seeing these girls continue to grow and develop. GREAT JOB, GIRLS!!

The Varsity Team participated in a Clinic this past week, hosted by the Coe-Brown Northwood Academy Volleyball Program. Coach Kristen Miller did a fabulous job of working on drills and skills with our girls. Many of our players will be going to CBNA, so it was nice for us to participate in an event like this.

This week:
The Varsity has a home game on Tuesday, the 29th against Farmington and Milton. They also have a game in Rye on Wednesday. On Friday, they will host Oyster River.

The JV's home game against COOP is cancelled, but return to action on Wednesday at Freemont/Ellis. They also host Farmington and Milton on Thursday.
