The journey that has taken place across the 2024-2025 Carroll County High School 🏫 Volleyball 🏐 season is about to close up shop. Every team but one has their season end at some point short of its Dream destination.
Saturday afternoon at 1:00 pm CCHS, as the #7 seed will be hosting a Regional Tournament play-in game against the #10 seed William Byrd.
Sadly for me, I will be 836 miles to the South at Hard Rock Stadium 🏟 for a Noon kickoff of the Duke University Football game at Miami.
The flights ✈️ were booked a month ago, when the thought of playing a 🏡 play-in game was not on the board. The reality is that if I was the only one going to fly down it would be easy to eat the ticket 🎟 in order to call out the Roster one last time.
This team grew on me in a manner that I didn’t see coming. At the start of the season I only had the Home schedule 📅 on my Calendar. As it turns out, the only day I wasn’t there for the Junior Varsity or the Varsity was their trips to Glade Springs.
I have asked Head Coach Cindy Edwards to make sure that we get to play Christiansburg on Tuesday night. Naturally, Coach said she would do her very best. Now it’s time to take the plea public by asking for the team to go out there and Win one for the Gipper. Not sure how many people are old enough to remember pre-President Ronald Reagan saying that famous line during the Film.
The Volleyball 🏐 season will end sooner than later but know that at 12-10, this team has accomplished things that weren’t foreseen. They are guaranteed to finish with a winning record despite playing 9 matches versus teams that could make serious post season runs 🏃♂️.
We know that Aza Petty will play her final Home Match tomorrow, we just need it to not be her final match of her High School career.
I feel pretty sure that I will be the only person in Miami that will be following the match. I just need the Ladies to Net (Volleyball term) a Win so we can fight to play another Day!
