Coach’s comments: “We should be improved over last year. Our roster has all but two players who were on varsity last year, so I am super excited about this season. We have three seniors, six juniors and one sophomore. The competition, that’s what is way different this year; there is nothing given. You can see it in the gym and feel it. There is depth and a lot of pieces that give us versatility. We have four good passers. Two girls are battling for libero. We will be a scrappy team. The girls have worked hard on defense and their out-of-system play – making good plays out of bad plays. And that’s where last years’ experience will help us. We are setting the bar higher this year.”
