Junior girl Vikings claim district championship
It was one of the most impressive volleyball teams in recent memory – a straight nine team – and they did not disappoint at the district championships in Medstead this past week.
The Comp Vikings junior volleyball team played so strongly on Thursday, in fact, they were never forced to play a third and deciding set, defeating every opponent they faced in consecutive sets en route to clinching the battle west district championship.
“It feels great,” Vikings head coach Jeff Gibson said in a phone interview over the weekend. “We didn’t let a lot of balls hit the floor and we didn’t sort of shoot ourselves in the foot with our service game like we did at JP [last week] but the hitting attack was just unbelievable. I was really proud of them.
“The most impressive thing was the hitting was outstanding. The girls put on a bit of a clinic.”
