On Thursday, August 21 to Saturday, August 23, the McKinney Christian Academy varsity volleyball team hosted and competed in the 16th Annual Tournament of Champions. They came out swinging, beating Prestonwood North, Grapevine Faith and Parish Episcopal in pool play. This put the Mustangs first in their pool. On Saturday, the Mustangs started strong, beating Trinity Christian Addison. The first set scores were 25-19 and the second set was 25-17. In the end, they fell short, losing to Legacy Christian in two sets. The scores were 11-25 and 16-25. Senior Sadie Blake was awarded All-Tournament team. Sophomore Brittany Bartoo shares her thoughts, saying,” The tournament was such a fun experience and we did amazing as a team. Even though we did not win, we got better in the process. I cannot wait to see how far our team goes this season.”

Their next game is Tuesday, August 26, against Elevate Academy.

Presley Dreffs has been at MCA since 4th grade and is currently a Sophomore. This is her second year in newspaper, and she is excited for all the opportunities this year will bring. Presley is a part of the MCA volleyball program, but also enjoys playing it outside of school. She is also a part of the MCA softball team and is playing soccer this year. In her free time, Presley enjoys hanging out with her friends and family. Her favorite memory is when the softball coach surprised the softball team with Nerf guns and water balloons. Presley’s favorite verse is Philippians 4:6. “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.”
