Lady Lions Volleyball Team Advances

Congratulations to the varsity volleyball team on their win last night over Batavia.  This is only the second time in more than 11 years that the team has made it out of the first round of the Division 2 tournament.  The team came out strong defeating Batavia 25-13 in the first game.  They continued to play well and finished off the bulldogs in 3 games.  Eleanor lead the team with 12 kills and 2 blocks.  Rachel Zawacki was the defensive leader with 11 digs.  Jessica Nazareth lead with 13 assists and 3 aces.  The team thanks everyone who supported us last night and would love to have a cheering section on Wednesday at CNE.
