'The Lady Pirates ended their season short but have made many gains this season. All the Lady Pirates improved their volleyball skills throughout the season, which helped the team make improvements during the season. Many of the players accepted new roles and worked hard to do their best in whatever role the coaches asked them to play. We thank our seniors for their leadership and dedication to Pirate volleyball. McKenna Kocmich reached some milestones this season as she set her 1000th set assist and served her 100th Ace!

We are extremely proud of the hard work and dedication the girls have shown this season and are looking forward to next year!' ~ Coach Lindsey Fathke
