Varsity Volleyball he Varsity Volleyball team was a hard working team. They started practice three weeks before school start- ed in August, and prepared themselves for the games ahead. Practices were everyday for two hours and games were scheduled on Tuesdays and Thursdays. They worked mostly on serve re- ceive, said Coach Cathy Gonzales. The team has improved a lot this year and has come a long way from the begining of the season. With graduating seniors leaving, the Varsity team will be split and the re- maining members will be faced with the loss of key players.
