Stacy Stapel and Mckenzie Reidhead are ninth graders at Springville Junior High School who are on the Springville High School’s volleyball team. Everyday after school Stacy and Mckenzie have volleyball practice at the high school. Every Tuesday and Thursday, they have volleyball games. Lauren Ostler, ninth grader at SJHS, is a manager for the high school volleyball team. She collects the volleyballs when the teams are done practicing, and at some volleyball games she helps keep track of who goes in and who comes out.
According to Stacy, she tried out for the high school team because she is “largely a fan” of the sport of volleyball. She also wanted to get involved with the high school activities, even though she is not in high school yet. Stacy is the setter. She said, “I am technically on the J.V./Varsity. But I mostly play J.V. When I do play Varsity it’s very exciting.”
Mckenzie Reidhead is also on the high school volleyball team. She plays middle on the sophomore team. Mckenzie said, “I play middle and I love it! It’s way fun to swing at the ball and smack it into people’s faces.” According to Mckenzie, she started to play volleyball three years ago. Mckenzie said, “My older sisters all played volleyball. So I decided to play on a city league team, and loved it.”
