Teamwork is where it's at...

The 800M run is a timed run that is required in order to play in a volleyball game. For some girls, making their time is a piece of cake. For others, it takes a lot of determination and training.

At 6:30am this morning the WHOLE freshmen team showed up at the track to cheer Jessie on in her attempt to make her 800M time. Jessie was only expecting a few of her teammates, but they ALL showed up. Jessie ran her 800 with the help of all of the girls. Some paced her, some pulled her, and some cheered her on. I wish I had turned on my camera to video tape the ending. Jessie crossed the finish line making her time...the girls said it was a scene from a movie and Jessie just said she couldn't feel her legs! This kind of teamwork is what makes you all Volleychiefs. Your Coaching Staff is beyond proud of you! What an awesome example you all are! Jessie...way to go, girl! Your hard work is showing and has paid off!
