Like past years, Lake Oswego Girls Volleyball ended the season strong. The team played a wide variety of competition from around the state, demonstrating teamwork and growth that reflected the hard work they put into the sport. Though every match came with challenges, Girls Volleyball was able to utilize their strong chemistry to become a difficult team to beat.
Throughout the season, the team was able to win against highly ranked 6A opponents such as Lakeridge, St. Mary’s Academy and Tualatin. Senior captain Esther Conrad said, “It felt amazing because we played a great game against them and it was an awesome win.” After their successful performance, the girls earned themselves a spot in playoffs, losing only against Jesuit, the third ranked team in the state. Consisting of many new players and playing styles, the group had to adapt compared to previous seasons. “It was a fun senior season and we had an exceptional group of people,” Conrad reflected.
Demonstrating an impressive connection both on and off the court, LO Girls Volleyball truly exemplified the definition of a Laker athlete. The team represented what it means to persevere, especially in a competitive and high-pressure environment.
