To wrap up a phenomenal season, the team finished undefeated in league play! Every game and practice was built on hard work, unity and grit that ultimately helped them reach impressive season totals: 650 kills, 275 aces, and 1,200 digs.
Their record speaks for itself, but even more remarkable is the way they grew together as athletes and teammates — truly a season to remember!
