Tuesday, October 27 was the Lady Mustangs senior night for volleyball. Senior night is a way to honor the senior players and commend their high school volleyball careers. The juniors and sophomores helped plan and make the gifts to make this senior night special. This year’s seniors, Ava Grace Haggard and Micah McDowell, were announced before the game. Subsequent to being announced, a slideshow was presented with photos of the young ladies together all through their friendship since Pre-K. McDowell said, “My funniest memory from this volleyball season is when we created our own dances and performed them at retreat.”

Both teams played against Tyler Grace. JV battled hard and lost in two sets. Varsity triumphed and won all three sets 25-20, 25-12, 25-21. The Lady Mustangs will host the Area playoff game in the SLC on November 10 against Southwest Christian at 6:30 p.m.
