Over the past twelve weeks, fourteen girls spent time and energy developing their skills under the tutelage of coaches Heerema and Koning. Their hard work paid off on Saturday, Nov. 3, when Zion’s varsity volleyball team claimed victory over Martin and won “Dede,” their district trophy.
All girls agreed with Kelly Leep’s statement, “It’s fun because we played together as a team.”
Alyssa VanBeek added, “Seeing the ball drop on the other side of the court and knowing that all our hard work had paid off and celebrating with my teammates and the fans were my favorite parts of districts.”
Zion students and staff are thrilled about the achievements of their varsity volleyball team and are very proud of the athletes’ hard work.
