“We work hard and have already improved a lot this season,” sophomore Hannah Bode said. “[Still], we need to improve on having a lot more energy on the court and working as a team.”

The Varsity team’s first set ended in a score of 20-25 to the Rebels. They came back in the next set however, beating Hays 28-26.
