INNIN carries on throughout the diti n underclass volleyball program The thrill of victory! Everyone wants to win, and the volleyball teams did just that. The teams carried the winning tradition of the volleyball program. All four sub-varsity teams tinished the season with winning records. The freshman B team finished the season with a record of 9-3, and the freshman A team also had a winning record, although the scores were not available. Being on the freshman team was a way for the students coming from a middle school team to get the feel for the court and positions on the high school team. As with any team, unity played a big part in its success. Fr. Angie Ramstetter of the freshman A team said, Our team's unity was really helpful because we would all be smiling and having a good timeg it would help us relax on the court. The Most Valuable Player for the freshman A team was Fr. Courtnee Willams, and the Lead- ership Award for freshman A was Fr. Angie Ramstetter. On the freshman B team the Most Valu- owing e orm at ma es the vol- leyball program consistent winners, Jr. Jeni Knight sets the ball to Jr. Lisa Hardin dunng the Smoky Hill match, which Overland won 15-6, 15-11. able Player was Fr. Margaret Castro, and the Leadership Award went to Fr. Jamie Kanter. The sophomore team had one of their best seasons, finishing 14- 1. The reason the team was so suc- cessful was that they supported each other. Soph. Gi Yun Kim said, The team acted as a family. When one player had a problem, she went to the other players for help. This helped for good team unity and eventually the success of the team. The Most Valuable Player was Fr. Kate Galloway and the Leadership Award went to Soph. Sharol Preisser. Hard work and tough practices paid off for the JV team. The practices were very demanding on the players: they had to endure conditioning and drills in the quest to become better players. But all of the hard hours in prac- tice paid off in the end with the team's successes. They finished the season with a record of 11-3. Not only did the team play well during the season, but also, as Jr. Mary Lee said, The team im- proved its game as the season progessed. We lived up to our expectations and fulfilled most of our potential. The JV team came in fourth place in the Heritage tournament, falling to Heritage 14-16, 10-15 in aclose last match. The players felt that this match, the last of the season, was the best match of the season. Even though they lost, many players felt that they had played very well. Mary said, I believe we played an excellent game and did our very best. Most players gained a lot from playing volleyball. Jr. Heather Eversly said, l got a lot of experi- ence and improved a lot of my volleyball skills. Players learned not only vollyball skills but also skills such as friendship, team- work, and mental toughness that would help them in all areas of life. Jr. Jenny Kieman was the re- cipient of the Leadership Award and Jr. Lisa Hardin received the Most Valuable Player Award. The four sub-varsity teams carried out the winning tradition of the volleyball program. Not only did they win their games, but they leamed invaluable skills in volleyball and life. And so the wirming tradition continued. ith r. isa a m covenng her, r. Kim Goodwin spikes the ball into the opponent's court during a home game against Boulder. The Blazers went on to win the match 15-5, 15-6. -1 E S 5 N: s s t ,fs- Q S The J V VOUCYWU Con N ers Freshman B Volleyball 14-5 10-2 Sophomore Volleyball W OH?
