"Most of our practice focuses on serving and bumping and how to play the game", Coach Forrest said, adding that this team builds skills for future playing years.

CHEERLEADING
The cheerleading squad looks great this season with new uniforms and pompoms and a third-place trophy from the parochial league competition this fall at Father Ryan. There are nine seventh- and eighth-grade girls on the squad this year along with the junior mascot cheerleader.
