Girls Volleyball The K-M volleyball team entered into its first inter- scholastic competition this year. The varsity squad tied with Stewartville for third place in the HVL conference, with an overall win-loss record of 3-5. B-Squad finished with a 2-6 record. Coach Prorok stated, In terms of win versus losses, the girl's first season of interscholastic volleyball competition may not be termed a huge suc- cess, but each individual, as well as the team as a whole, improved greatly.

First year Coach Beth Prorok, aided by Asst. Coach Kris Herbst, led the KoMets into the first season of interscholastic competition. A, B, and C teams were established and 10 conferance games were scheduled. The KoMets finished conference play with a 9-1 re- cord, putting them in a tie with Plainview for the HVL title. The 7th and 8th graders and the B-squad also had a fine season, with a record of 4-1 and 9-1 respectively. The team went on to District play, which ended in victory as the girls defeated Dover—Eyota, St. Charles, and Plainview for the Dist. Ill title. The KoMets then became the first K-M basketball team to go to State when they defeated Alden-Conger for the Region I title. The KoMets beat Braham in the quarterfinals of state, but fell to the fast, high-scoring, more ex- perienced Glencoe team (eventually state champs).
