The girls’ varsity volleyball team’s dreams were crushed Thursday night when they were defeated in their match against Spring Lake Park. They lost in three games 25-22, 25-16, and 25-14 after all three matches. Before the match, senior and team captain Megan Beacom said, “It’s our number one goal to be number one in our conference.” Unfortunately for them, this goal was not achieved.
Up until this game, the team had been undefeated in their conference. Beacom had contributed their success up until the game Thursday on team unity. “There’s a lot more team chemistry than last year,” said Beacom, “There are also six seniors on the team, so there is a lot more team leadership.” Each member of the team has been a factor in the team’s success this season. “We are utilizing every player on our roster in some capacity this season so it has really been a complete team effort,” said Collins.
