From the beginning of the year till now, we have worked together to overcome some of our toughest struggles. I’ve never seen such a talented group of girls. We have earned our spot in states by our three hour practices, weekend conditioning, and strength which each player brings to the court every day. I could not be more proud of what we have accomplished together as the SJV Girls Volleyball Team.”

Victoria, a junior setter, leads the team in assists and is among the top 25 players in the state assists wise. She has also been deemed one of 7 key players to watch throughout the state tournament by NJ.com
