SOUTHPORT (2-22) – Coach Weller, an Iowa native and a University of Indianapolis graduate, takes over after leading Shelbyville to a regional and two sectional championships … she considers last season a closed book … this season is a fresh start … returning starters are 5-8 outside hitter Kayla Fox and defensive specialist Taylor Beatty … Weller wants the senior duo to lead and motivate younger players … more than half the team has no varsity experience … key players include senior defensive specialist Britton Whitlock, juniors in 5-10 middle hitter Bailey Fields and setter Emily Patrick … senior Emily Kendrick moves up from JV as a defensive specialist … sophs Kierston Whitlock, Maggie Davis and Tiana Wright coming along quickly … Cards defeated only Ben Davis and Whiteland last year … Southport plays in Ben Davis Invitational Saturday.

Weller’s comment: “This year is a building year so we can provide a lot of experience to the girls who are new to the varsity. We want to contend for conference and sectional championships in the future. They have a good work ethic, and that’s surprising because most of them have had a different coach every year. We are working on fundamentals and keeping everything simple. We lack that core experience so I’ve really gone back to the basics. I want us to be fundamentally sound and aggressive but not over-aggressive to the point where we lose control. These girls work hard and love the game of volleyball.”
