The ladies opened up their season Thursday night September 2nd against Arvada and came out with the big W beating Arvada 3-0. The ladies played their opponents at TJ and with great teamwork and amazing skills they came out with a win. The team didn’t stop with that win, also beating Conifer at Conifer on Friday September 3, and came out with another 3-1 win.
After a great game the ladies, including senior Kira Rodriguez, are ready for another excellent season. “Good things will come,” said Kira.
The volleyball squad had an undefeated season last year and are ready to continue with that approach this year. After a summer full of practice and hard work, the ladies are prepared and excited for the upcoming season. Rodriguez said, “I think it’s going to be a good season this year. We have a lot of experienced players and a freshman (Celest Henderson) who has really stepped up as our setter.”
With returning coach Kathleen Nickless and two new Assistant Coaches, Kim Johansen and Jamie Lyle, the coaches are ready to lead these talented volleyball players to the top, with a season full of wins. The lady Spartans’ next games are Wednesday September 8 against Adams City High School at Adams City at 7:00 p.m. and Thursday September 9, 2010 against Westminster High School at Westminster at 6:30 p.m.
