Varsity Places 1st at MU Team Camp




MU Camp...Here we come!

The girls left a lasting impression at MU Team Camp this past week. The first match was a little rough as they worked out the kinks and got used to playing together, but thankfully, it was all uphill from there. The Volleychiefs were challenged by several talented teams from the KC and St. Louis areas and came out on top after 3 days. Their time at MU included 15 matches of volleyball, walking to and from Hearnes center 3 times a day in 95 degree heat, playing the tunnel game, battling 3 foot tall gymnasts in the food lines and awesome dorm room accommodations :)



Always together, as a team, as it should be :)

We had to walk through a construction site to get to Hearnes Center. Of course the girls couldn't resist walking through this huge concrete cylinder.

The girls were exhausted, but proud after 2 hard fought semi & final matches that went to 3 games each.
