Congratulations, ladies!

🏐 WEEKLY TEAM AWARDS 🏐

Each week, we’ll recognize two players who are making a difference - not just through their volleyball skills, but through their work ethic, attitude, and commitment to our team.

🏆 SET THE STANDARD AWARD
For the player who leads by example. They bring the right attitude, hold themselves and others accountable, and consistently demonstrate what it means to be a great teammate.

🏆 NO SHORTCUTS AWARD
For the player who puts in the work when no one is watching. They embrace the tough moments, stay disciplined, and understand that getting better takes consistent effort.

This week’s winners:

⭐ Set the Standard: Ruby Phelps

⭐ No Shortcuts: Hannah Gatzemeyer

Congratulations! Keep raising the standard!
