Senior Night Tribute

Tuesday, October 16 vs. Ogden HS
 "Leaders don't create followers;  they create more leaders."   - Tom Peters
Here are a bunch of Seniors who have made the year outstanding.  I haven't coached a group this lively and have enjoyed my time with them; they have made it a pleasure.  These five Seniors have worked hard to achieve the goals that they have set for themselves.  They have been reliable on the court and off.  This year has been success mostly due to the example, dedication, and leadership of these young ladies.  I have been impressed with their friendship, even under pressure, and their inclusion of the younger athletes.  They are truly ladies with positive individual qualities--each being strong attributing members to the working dynamic of our team.  They make good choices in life and keep a high standard.  Great job, and we coaches will always remember the Granstville High School 2012 volleyball season for the dedication the Seniors have given to jump start the program's successes.

Coach's Corner: Davis Tourney JV Report

The Davis Tournament was a really good learning experience for the girls. We played a lot of matches and learned a lot of things that we can improve upon this season. By the end of the tournament the girls were starting to work together really well. The most important thing that they learned and improved upon this tournament was the importance of talking. It may have taken them till the last match, but I don't think I have ever heard them talk so much or so loudly as the last few games!

Coach's Corner: Onward to Region

Region play begins tomorrow with a tough opener against Morgan.  The Varisty played consistently well last night in our game against Wasatch.  Great team work and goal-oriented play is ocurring, which will continue to bring success.

Coming together is a beginning.

Keeping together is progress.

       Working together is success.  -Henry Ford

To point out some leadership playing during the pre-season matches, I want to recognize Turner as leader of the team with highest kill average, getting about 12 a game.  Christensen closely follows with averaging 10.  Those kills couldn't occur without Conrads assists and the team's passing and ball control.  Matthews, Davis, and Cloward play a big role in that.  Hale has the high serving percentage.  Great job Grantsville gals!  Keep our goals in sight, onward as we fight :).  GO COWBOYS!!

SLCC Camp

COACH'S CORNER:  We had a successful week at SLCC.  It was a 3 day combination camp of skills training and team play.  I saw a good deal of improvement in everyone individually and how the team "talks" and works together on the court.  The hussle has also gotten better.  Way to go!  We need to keep working hard this Summer in preparation for a successful 2012 season and build upon what we've learned this week.          -Coach O
