A Closing Smile

BY: Jordan Pasalaqua

This year's Madison Girls Varsity Volleyball team has ended their season with a record of 14-9, they were also 5-5 for the conference. They had many accomplishments in this years season. The girls won the Pink Jug back from the Madison vs. Perry game that was held at Madison High School. The last time the girls had the jug was in 2013.

This year the Riverside Beavers were the Madison Girls' toughest opponent. Weeks before the game the girls worked their hardest at practice and were getting ready for their tough match. This game was held at Riverside High School, the Beavers home court advantage. The girls started off really strong and kept their intensity up the whole entire game. The girls still only played 3 games in all, but they fought their hardest and kept all the games close. The player who stood out the most during the game was Senior Shyenne Ledford. She had around around 10 blocks during the game, four of them in a row. The girls were upset that they lost but in the end they knew that they played their hardest and gave it their all and were still happy with the outcome.

The girls traveled out to Euclid where Euclid High School were hosting sectionals. The Madison Girls were facing Cleveland heights in the first round. They only played three games but they were really close. The girls pulled through and came out with a win. The girls next game was on a Thursday against North at Euclid High School again. The girls came out hard and strong to try and keep their season going but the girls could not pull through. The girls played three games but they were all close and the girls battled hard.     

The Madison Girls Volleyball team had a really good season. They are proud of what they have accomplished this season and they are proud to be a team. The girls can not wait for next year. Good luck to all the seniors for their future plans for next year.
