Blue RidgeChristianAcademy opened their volleyball season Friday evening against
Calvary Christian.
The game marked the Warrior's debut of their second season. Rebecca Madrid
returns this year as head coach with Athletic Director, Lisa Huskey helping as the assistant coach. Thirteen girls, seventh grade to eleventh
grade, make up the Varsity and JV teams.
The BRCA varsity team dominated the floor for
the first two matches against Calvary, winning them 25 to 16 and 25 to 14.The Warriors let the third match slip from
their grasp with a close 24 to 26 loss.The girls rallied in the fourth match to take home the win with at 25 to
20 score.
Prior to the game, Assistant Coach Lisa Huskey was optimistic about the opening match-up with Calvary. "The girls have really worked hard and are well prepared
for the game. Since there are existing relationships between the teams,
it should make the match a little more intense."Huskey predicted correctly; the atmosphere of
the game was intense.A mini pep rally
held for the volleyball and cross country teams earlier in the school day had
players, students, and teachers energized and ready for the game. The
Warrior Spirit echoed through the gym as fans cheered the girls to victory!
Head Coach Rebecca Madrid is excited to see
how much her team has improved since last year. "We are a much stronger
team this year. The girls have grown and become more competitive and
aggressive. Their tighter bond has enabled them to communicate better on
the court this year."
Congratulations to the Warriors on their
first win of the season!
