Congratulations to the 22-23 volleyball girls on receiving the USMC-AVCA academic award. Varsity team members must maintain a year-long GPA of 3.3 or higher. In addition, we received an additional Honor Roll distinction which represents the top 20% of GPA's in our division. We are one of 14 high schools in Nebraska to receive that distinction. We are so proud of our student athletes on their outstanding work on the court but more importantly the classroom. Go Whippets!! 💜🏐💜
