This season everyone has a better understanding of the individual roles within the team. This will allow for us to work more cohesively as a one team.
6-What did last season teach your squad on how to overcome adversity?
Last season we worked through the many challenges Covid brought. We learned to value volleyball and the time we are given more than we have in the past. Each moment given is a moment to learn and grow as a team. No moment will be taken for granted and we won’t miss an opportunity to play and improve.
