The middle school volleyball team did a fantastic job this year. Most of these athletes have been working hard in volleyball since they were in 3rd grade. Their love for the game showed this year more than ever. There were so many young ladies that joined this year we created four teams.
The “Blue & Gold” team did not travel and had home games every Thursday after school. The other three groups traveled to play and were all undefeated the entire regular season.
The “C” team was led by Taylor (S), and she also played for the “B” team toward the end of the season as an all-around player. Taylor received the “Most Improved” award. Kristin (S) played for the “C” team and stepped up to play for the B team in the “B” team final tournament.
The “B” team was led by Arlette (S), Dakota (OPP), Laney (S), Pamela (L), Monze (OH), and Gabriella (DS). Pamela played Libero for the final tournaments for both the “B” and “A” teams. Pamela also received the “Most Improved” award. 2022 was her first year playing volleyball for Dakota, and she had terrific serves. Dakota received the “Rookie” award. The “B” team placed second in the I-40 “B” Team League.
The “A” team was undefeated all year long. They are the Champions in the I-40 “A” Team League. Crystal (OPP), Bella (OPP), Jordyn (DS), and Andrea (L) contributed to our success. The team was led by Gracie (OH), Aura (DS), Eva (OH), and Isabella (S). These four young ladies received the Spartan Award for the season. The Spartans never get down on themselves and know how to keep playing with a positive attitude. The bond they share is unique and beautiful.
We are very proud of our Lady Spartans: Coaches Erika Acosta, Evelina Acosta, Cristina Santoyo, and manager Treighton.
