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 !

Thank You Nikki Heflin and Thank You Shelia Harris for coaching up this group of youngsters ! Job Well Done !!!
