GIRLS VOLLEYBALL

  • Congratulations to our amazing 8th grade Girls Volleyball B Team for winning the tournament last night! Your hard work and teamwork truly paid off. You played with heart and determination, and we couldn’t be prouder of this incredible achievement.

Well done, champions! 

 

  • The 7th Grade Girls Volleyball team wrapped up their season last night with a decisive victory over Twin Groves in just two sets. The highlight of the second set came from Tori Kourtis, who took control at the service line and delivered an incredible run of 25 straight points to secure the win.
    In the semifinals, Woodlawn started strong by claiming the first set but fell in a hard-fought second set. Despite their efforts, they were unable to rally in the third set, ultimately falling 2-1 to Aptakisic, the top-ranked undefeated team.
