1977 VOLLEYBALL Nelson Co. Wm. Campbell Altavista Gretna Brookville Rustburg J. Forest Amherst Liberty Coach Lucy Harris breathed a little easier at the start of the ’77 volleyball season, having four of last year’s start- ers returning to the squad. While the Raiderettes weren't extremely tall, they overcame this by quickness, good ser- ving, spiking, and setting, and—most of all—teamwork and a “never die” attitude. The Raiderettes lost the last game of the season to Liberty, giving them an 8-1 record. The team was up and ready for the tournament, but all hopes were shattered when they were defeated by Altavista in the first game of the tournament. Along with excellent teamwork, there was a lot of in- dividual talent on the Raiderette team: four Raiderettes made the All-District team. Marie Fraley, first team; Connie Murray, second team; and Roxie Martin and Vanessa Smith were named to honorable mention. Individual team awards were received by Connie Murray (Most Valuable Player) and Vanessa Smith (Most Improved Player). Congratulations to all the Raiderettes.

JV Raiderettes Aim For Experience The girls’ JV basketball program is only in its second season, but has already sent players to the Varsity squad who would have had no experience if not for the establishment of the team last year.
