PLAYER’S COMMENT
“… I am very excited I think it’s gonna be a great experience, As I’ve grown the 7 years I’ve played I’ve noticed a lot of changes from the transition from middle school to high school play was a lot different I had some great coaches all the years to always help me and teach me the right ways o stared with a great foundation and just kept growing when moving on to the next step of my career. I’ve grown a lot and I’ve had some great progress and have a lot of things to show all the great stuff I have achieved through the years. These four years have been the best. Spending with my team is always the best part of the school year the program has grown a lot the past four years and especially this last year. I love this program it has made the biggest impact on me as a player and just as a person. I will definitely miss playing for LCHS. I will miss all of my teammates. It’s been the biggest pleasure to have played for Lawrence County.”
“… I’m honestly very excited and I will continue my volleyball career there and major in elementary education to become a kindergarten teacher. I honestly already like him a lot he’s really nice and I can’t wait to see what kind of coach he is and how much he can better me as a player in the next four years.”
