Our volleyball teams have a lot of determination, with our Freshman team winning 2nd place with five wins and three losses. The JV team beat Beatty and then beat Lund in 3 matches.
JV won against Beatty 25-9 and 25-17 and beat Lund 18-25, 25-13, and 16-14. The Freshman team played four games on Friday and four on Saturday. Winning 2nd place is a big deal, especially since it is our Freshman volleyball team. They’ve been working hard and earned that 2nd place position. This was an unexpected turnout, but it was not unappreciated.
There are many struggles that a volleyball team faces; it is hard for the team to get in the right mindset and focus on the game. One player, Samantha Maravilla-Nunez, stated, “Getting out of my head and focusing on the game was a struggle, but I eventually got over it”.
Although Freshman placed 2nd, no major plays were made. When playing against Beatty, our team unfortunately lost 3 games to the Beatty team. As well as playing against Beatty, our
team went against Sandy Valley, Tonopah, and Round Mountain. Despite being a Freshman team, our volleyball team played against JV teams. If you can, you should visit a volleyball game. They are exciting and action-packed with close calls and intense plays.
