The coaches that make it all happen are Head Coach Susanne Woomer and Assistant Coach Emily Sinisi. Get ready for all of these players to get some action on the volleyball court this season!

We had the chance to catch up with the team when we attended one of their practices, and we were able to find out some really neat stuff about this group of athletes.

The coaches have been really pushing the girls to do their very best this season. They do all kinds of different warm-ups before they start every practice. The coaches are helping them improve day after day. The girls have great servers, amazing communication with each other, and awesome passing. Faith Patton is the team captain. She was voted team captain because all of the girls voted for someone who would push everyone harder and who was a good team player. Malia Danish, Kaitlyn Robinson, and Dakota Woomer joined the junior high team for the first time this year. This will be Riley Amerine, Karlie Feathers, Sydney Lechner, Olivia Musselman, and Faith Patton’s second year on the squad.

So, who’s excited for some junior high girl’s volleyball? Make sure you try to catch all of the games and cheer on all of the girls! With these coaches and players, they will be surely have a great season!
