Height & Experience help girls get off to hot start
The girls varsity volleyball team has started off the season well off recording an 10-3 record in one of their games. Their first game of the season was a dominating win against Doral on Aug. 24. Their second game of the season was almost as dominant as the first, this time against Keys Gate. In those two games the team won all three sets.
The team has recently qualified as district semifinalists. Many of the girls think this year’s squad is talented enough to build upon the success of last year, and improve on the weaknesses, possibly going further than they did last season.
“We have gained a lot of height; we have four starters over 6-foot-tall and this will lead to us being a good blocking and offensive team if we can repair our passing,” said long time head coach Ed Potter.
On Sep. 9 the team participated in the Lake Highland Tournament at Orlando Volleyball Academy, winning 3-2.
The team has won four straight games leading up to their rivalry game against Ransom Everglades, which was on Sep. 29 @ Ransom.
“As a senior, I’m really excited for this season. I think we are going to do really well this year because our team is very close and committed,” said senior Valeria Londono.
