During the 2017 season, the girls varsity volleyball team had a rocky start both with the addition of a new head coach, Greg Bruns, and filling the spots of the previously senior-heavy team; however, that didn’t stop them from putting 100 percent effort into the season. Their optimism allowed the girls to take many teams by surprise as they were not predicted to be as successful as they turned out to be at the conclusion of their last game.

“I feel like we were definitely the underdogs of conference,” varsity volleyball player and junior Cenie Frieson said. “No one expected us to do as good as we ended up doing.”

Their season ended with a record of 13-5-1.

Fortunately, the 2018 season appears promising as returning athletes, as well as many new faces, work hard to capture the spirit and talent of the varsity girls volleyball team. This season they are attempting to achieve new goals, hopefully moving farther than the previous year of being regional champions.

¨This year, our team is really pushing to make it to state,¨ junior Lexington McKillips said. ¨In the end, our ultimate goal is to place at finals.¨

Together, the girls bring high energy to the court and individually contribute their own skills while collaborating to perform their very best. This strong team chemistry between the girls fuels their competitiveness, resulting in exciting games that no Sequoit should miss.
