From Coach Becker and Carpenter
Junior High Volleyball Athlete of the week (2/24/2025)-(2/28/2025)
Varsity: Brilee Davenport (L) (8th Grade)
Brilee was chosen this week as the varsity Jr.High volleyball athlete of the week. Brilee has come into her 8th grade season helping her teams with her spectacular saves and passes. In last week's game v.s Wesclin during the middle of an intense rally Brilee made the diving save of a lifetime to keep the hounds alive and win the rally. Brilee always comes into practices and games with tremendous energy and enthusiasm. She also has been helping out the underclassmen this past weekend Brilee volunteered to help out the JV team in their Wesclin tournament. Showing Brilee’s leadership both on and off the court. I am extremely excited to see the full potential Brilee brings throughout this season.
JV: Charlotte Ruth (S/RS) (6th Grade)
Once again Charlotte was chosen this week as our JV Team player of the week. Charlotte continues to enhance the teams and her own abilities throughout this season Charlotte still leads the team in assists. Charlotte has shown true humility and leadership both on and off the court and it speaks volume. Every game Refs and even coaches compliment and recognize Charlotte's leadership role on the court with helping her teammates.
C Team: Harper Buress (MH) (6th Grade)
Harper was chosen as the C team athlete of the week. Harper has continued to grow and develop her skills throughout this season. Harper had a great game last week v.s Wesclin helping the greyhounds with her hitting and passing abilities. Harper embodies great respect and responsibility on the team. When Harper is either playing or on the sideline she makes sure to bring the energy and juice towards her team. Her positivity and great attitude is a huge reason for being recognized. Coach Carpenter and I are both proud of how Harper has bought into the program. We’re excited to see what more growth she shows as we continue through the season.

Junior High Volleyball Athlete of the week (February 17th - February 21st)

Khloe was chosen as this week's Jr.High volleyball athlete of the week. Khloe had a spectacular game this week v.s Germantown helping the both the JV and Varsity teams with her incredible saves on defense and hits. Khloe is an extremely hard worker at practice, and she’s always looking for ways to improve her game. Coach Carpenter and I are both extremely proud of the progress and leadership she's shown so far this season.
JV: Marley Pier (L) (7th Grade)
Marley was chosen as this week's Jr.High volleyball athlete of the week. Marley has contributed so much to helping her team out this season both on and off the court. But her play speaks louder than words versus Germantown Marley rallied the JV team through two close sets with tremendous saves and passes as Libero for JV. Marley’s continued growth and development of her skills since last season to now has truly been exciting to watch. Coach Carpenter and I are proud to see the continued growth and play she brings throughout this season.
