We are extremely excited about the 2024 volleyball season.

We have 15 athletes that have signed up to play volleyball this year. There are 8 incoming freshman: Elinita Rodriguez,Tilly Donohoe, Mason Sather, Lola Woodington, Amia Poole, Lyric Reed, and Elsie Leering. With this big group of incoming 9TH graders, we decided to have an all freshman JV Team with hope that if they stay together they will become a well bonded team and be stronger in the coming years.

We also have 7 returners and one new recruit. Our returning seniors, Ruby Ervin Mclean and Selene Rodriguez, Juniors Betty Burt and Dani Arnott, Sophomores Ruby Sausman, Gloria

Rodriguez, and Alivia Trani, plus our new recruit Kylie Willemsen should give us the experience we need to have a successful season.

These ladies have been working hard the last two weeks with 5 practices plus 3 workouts each week to prepare us for our first game with Friday Harbor. I have been very proud of how the girls have handled all the long days and think it will make us stronger for this season.

I hope to see you all at our home games; come cheer us on!
