• JV Volleyball—Olivia Janigova `25: Olivia is a force to be reckoned with solid playing in the front row as well as solid serving. She has the power, the height, and the communication that led this week to stopping HUGE blocks, and she has amazing hitting skills and all-together support with solid serves that led to points on the scoreboard. She is a leader on and off the court, and I cannot wait to see what she does for the rest of the season. Keep ringing that bell, Olivia.  
• Varsity Volleyball—Lila Nash `24: Lila has a never-ending spirit that screams volleyball! She lives and breathes the sport, and it is noticed on and off the court. She supports other athletes to ensure that her fellow players are ready for rotations, confident in their abilities, and works hard on serve receive to ensure the best second/third ball possible for her hitters. She has the vision needed to create plays with her tips and pushes—keep ringing the bell, Lila!
