Coach’s comments: “Our experienced girls have altered our practices this year. We work some on basics, but we are working on our lineup, getting the hitters and setters working. We’re able to fine-tune a lot of things. Our middles are our real strong point with lots of varsity experience there. I expect them to be very productive, but that depends on our passers to get them going. We have two juniors who really improved last year. The girls are excited to be competitive this year. Our schedule seems to always be tougher in the last half of the season. Hopefully that will change this time around.”
