2010 team prospectus

We return Heidi Brown who has played varsity since her freshman year. She and Deni Jacobs, who was just released after knee surgery, will be a dominant hitting force for us. We have some juniors and seniors who are vying for the other positions. We once again have a lot of height; defense is our main focus as we prepare to enter competition. After losing a few key players, we are working hard to bring along others to fill the gaps.
