To finish off the 2025 September Volleyball season the Varsity girls competed against Exira-Elk, after a hard fought battle they lost with a score of 3 - 1, the game was as good as any. With a loud and extravagant student section, dressed in camo head to toe, they cheered on every point, every miss, and certainly every serve. Some of our notable players include Sylvia Sullivan with the most kills and blocks, Ava Klinker with the most assists, and Reese Miller with the most digs.
