Lady Lancers Rock at Club West!




Our Lady Lancer volleyball teams did a fantastic job at the Club West tournament on Oct. 4. Lancer Blue took first place, beating Calvary Baptist in the final. Our Blue athletes came together on Sat., serving well, and playing scrappy defense. Coaches Martina Beaton and Charlene Jackson were so proud of their team, and ecstatic to reap the rewards of hard work. Our Gold team played outstanding volleyball the entire day, losing in the championship game (24-26,28-26,11-15) to an excellent Christ Lutheran team. Barbara Smith, Ariana Holmes, and Grace Gaskins received all-tournament honors. Hanna Sanchez passed nails the entire tournament, and Sasha Hourany ran the 5-1 beautifully. Hannah Thomas came alive in the front row, getting many block touches. Our underclassman tore it up, playing like veterans!
