Three students described their high school volleyball season, saying the team has improved since last year and is currently "ranked second in our region," and asked for more community support for the sport.

A student who identified themself as Student 1 said, "I love the fast paceness of volleyball. I just love how quick it is and how team oriented it is. And so it's just like a well oiled machine. We all work together." Student 2 added that the team has "grown a lot since last year," and noted players bring different skills and face tougher competition this season.

Students emphasized both physical and mental demands.
