It seemed like it was just yesterday that I walked into the Auxiliary Gym and saw Nikki Heflin and Sheila Harris working 💪 out the Junior Varsity team yet tonight it was time to say our Goodbyes 👋 to our JV players..

To start this final story with anything other than how elegant the three members of the JV team 💙 spoke about their Coaches during a pre-match ceremony would be an injustice. Kudos to the team for creating 👏 a tug at your heart ❤ moment that I believe that both Ladies will cherish…

In regards to the actual match, our Lady 👩 Cavaliers pushed the visiting Knights into extra points before falling 26-24.

Morgan Osborne ⚓ anchored the service line from 13-16 until 18-16 and Aubrey Hanshaw tied the set at 20-20 with an Ace – pictured above.

Scarlett Dalton landed an Ace to get Carroll County to set point at 24-23 but James River strung together three straight points to take the set, 26-24.

Carroll County trailed 12-6 when Paige Ogle and Hanshaw teamed up on a 4-0 run 🏃‍♂️. The Lady Cavaliers capped their comeback when Osborne landed an Ace and Aaliyah Hampton finished up a point to make it 14-14.

James River closed out the match with an 11-2 run, making the final score 25-16.

Now the season is over and the eight Sophomores will work on their games in hoping 🙏 to play on the Varsity team next year. The trio of Freshman and 8th graders have plenty of Volleyball 🏐 left in their futures !

Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

This little character made an appearance late last night as we took a look at why leaving the Gym tonight will feel different.

Borrowing from Snagglepuss, tomorrow night 🌙 it will be time to ” Exit stage Left ” as home Volleyball 🏐 matches come to an end…

Need to wish safe travels 🙏 to Mr DeHaven today as his Athletic Director duties will take him away from The Hill.

Will close it out with the Junior Varsity players that have spent the past few months growing up under the watchful eyes 👀 of Nikki Heflin and Sheila Harris. This will be their final time together as a group this season as well.
