2009 Lady Royals Volleyball Team Serve One Another in Love
 The CVCA Varsity Volleyball team had a great season, learning to serve one another in love. Their team verse for the season was Galatians 5:13 which reads, “You, my brothers, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature; rather, serve one another in love.” The Lady Royals were led in this endeavor by their seniors, Erin Cardis, Ayanna Coleman, Shelby Murphy and Nickole Najjar. Whether it was leading the team in a weekly time of worship, organizing team fellowship, mentoring the younger girls, or initiating prayer with their opponents after each match, this team really did serve the Lord and each other in love.
The Lady Royal’s finished the season playing much better volleyball than their 8-14 record indicates. In their last regular season match, the Lady Royals took a 23-20 lead against Tusky Valley, the #1 team in division III at the time! In the second round of the playoffs, the Lady Royals were tied 24-24 in game two against a very good Walsh team who went on to the elite eight in division II.
The Lady Royals will certainly miss this year’s senior class, especially team MVP and First-Team All Conference player Erin Cardis, who broke the all-time digs record at CVCA with an astounding 1521 digs in her four-year career! However, we have a very young talented group of girls returning. The lineup that experienced so much success against Walsh in the playoffs consisted of two seniors, two juniors, one sophomore, and five freshmen! The Royals were led in assists this season by freshman setter, K.C. Locke and kills by freshman middle and 2nd-team All Conference Player Kacie Moore. We are very excited for the future of CVCA Volleyball as we begin preparing for next season.
Brittian Bollenbacher, Head Coach
