This fall, BDS piloted an intramural volleyball team that spent the season learning the game, practicing skills, and holding weekly scrimmages. Over the course of the season, players improved tremendously and are prepared to step into a more competitive environment next year. Highlights from the season include amazing overhand serves by captain Clem Cradick, strong passes from fellow captain Ariel Duan and key contributions from newcomers Eyan Morales, Mackenzie Ekechukwu and Eileen Luo. Under the tutelage of head coach Jen James, this group has worked hard and is ready to carry the baton passed by this year’s varsity volleyball team. Speaking of varsity volleyball, the team wrapped up their interscholastic season with a hard-fought, three-set loss to Shady Hill this week. Despite the loss, the team finished with a 6-2 record and cemented their place in the BDS record books as the first-ever interscholastic volleyball team. Congratulations to all of our volleyball athletes on an incredible season.
