Lady Eagles Volleyball Team

The Lady Eagles volleyball team have been practicing for the past week. Coached by Ms. Johnson and Ms. Alexander the team had only two practices before they had their first match at Colorado Springs Charter Academy. Many of the girls have never played this sport, so the accomplishment was amazing for our fourth - sixth grade Lady Eagles team to win the match. The girls soon learned that it’s all about the serve and many of the girls proved that they could power the ball over the net.

Three of our sixth graders had to play for the seventh – eighth Lady Eagles team since we only had three seventh graders. This provided these players plenty of playing time. They were able to win one game, and let their opponent barely squeeze out a win with a score of 14-15. The team spirit started to come alive as the girls provided support to each other. The Lady Eagles have started to take flight.

Plan on attending our next home game at Pikes Peak Prep on Tuesday, September 7th at 4:30. We will be entertained by the 1st – 3rd grade Eaglets cheer team. This cheerleading team, consisting of 27 little girls, will be coached by Ms. Murphy. Don’t miss it!
