“There is a lot of work to do. However, I am excited about the progress we have made so far and the positive energy throughout the team,” said Coach Burns today after practice.

Given that volleyball is the only non-contact team sport in this pandemic school year, plans are currently in place to extend the season beyond the typical fall season. Normally the volleyball season wraps up at the end of trimester one with basketball starting up in trimester two.

Burns continued, “Since it is unlikely we will be able to play any basketball games in trimester two, I think this is a perfect year to focus on building our volleyball program by continuing with it through the winter trimester. We will of course continue to develop our basketball players in the winter in hopes for spring competitions, but perhaps on a reduced schedule in order to allow for continued volleyball development and competitions. We are still working out the details but are very excited about the possibility of playing in some competitions in the near future.”
