Although our season didn’t wrap up with as many wins as the girls hoped we had a lot of wins in other ways! And a lot of the losses in the score book were some really close games that could have gone either way!
Coach Scherbarth and I had a fairly young team this year with a few girls brand new to the sport or this level of play. We spent a lot of time focusing on fundamentals and are so proud of each and every girl and the improvements that she made!
This season saw quite a few girls figure out their overhand serves, and get quite good at them! When looking beginning of the season to end we got easily double the number of set ups and hits per game. Although some didn’t result in the points going our way it was amazing to see the girls using all their skills. There were also a lot of plays where we were able to rally back and forth and keep the ball alive. We also had girls who moved into different roles from the year or years before, or even games before.
As always I will be sad to see the girls move on to the next level, but am so excited to see what they will do and am so proud of what they have accomplished! I can’t wait for Midnight Madness to get one last opportunity to coach the 8th graders.
Our team this year consisted of 8th graders; Gabby, Alexa, and Abby Nelson, 7th graders; Darian, Lilly, Kaylee, Jacey, Zahaven, Jaelyn, and 6th graders; Bo, Julia, and Mya.

Junior High Girls Basketball began practice on October, 21st. The team consists of twelve girls from grades 6th through 8th. Three of them will be returning players from last year, so we will have a young team. The girls ended their last season with a 9-1 record, and were crowned Panhandle Conference Champions! The girls will once again be coached by Ron Olson and Linda Kudrna. The season opener will be at home on November 9th at 10:00 am against Sioux County. We are all looking forward to another great season!
