We are incredibly proud of our volleyball coach, Missy Henry, for her extraordinary work and dedication in building such a successful team. Through her diligence and guidance, the team was able to secure their 300th victory.
On September 15, 2022, the volleyball team, led by Coach Henry, defeated Kokomo's team, clenching their 300th win. Coach Henry's dedication to the sport, and the team, is so appreciated. Her passion in leading young people in the sport is nothing short of inspiring. Great work, Coach Henry!

Expectations
Most high school athletics are a big commitment, and volleyball is no exception. Being part of our volleyball program is a six-day per week commitment from August through October. Our season is busy--we play over 30 matches! The demands are great, but the rewards are even greater!
Volleyball players are great representatives of our program, our school, and our community. They work hard on the court and in the classroom. They are committed to each other and to the team.
The volleyball team's philosophy:
Team > Me

Equipment
All equipment that is needed is part of our Practice Packs, which includes team shoes, knee pads, spandex, and team apparel. These are purchased as soon as the player makes the team. The cost is usually around $85-$125, as of the 2021-2022 school year.
