Venice Volleyball Senior Night

Last night was senior night at Venice. We closed out the
regular season with a resounding win over a local rival to raise our record to
17 wins and 9 loses. 8 of the 9 loses came to teams ranked in the top twenty in
the nation.  This group of seniors is a
special group of young ladies. In many ways they are throwbacks in terms of
their commitment, focus and work ethic. The three years working with this group
has been one of the highlights of my coaching career. It was a very emotional
night for all of all of us. Personally it was very neat to sit on the end of
the bench and watch them play and reflect on what had gotten them to that
point. I will be graduating with this group, do to work and travel demands I
will no longer be able to work with the team, but I cherish the memories these
long ladies have provided. We still have three weeks left though to refocus and
began the second season – the playoffs. Our record as of today is 0-0, playoffs
begin on Tuesday and the State Championship is November 19.
