PVA 18s Bid & Regionals Report

PVA 18s competed in the KRVA Bid Tournament on May 2nd & 3rd in Williamsport, PA. Despite some tough matches, the team was able to reach the semi-finals in the Gold bracket by winning an exciting quarter-final match over Synergy LV 18s. When the team ran out of subs at the end of game 2, DS/Setter Justine McNulty, at 5'4", stayed in the rotation and came in to play middle in the front row - and saved the win for PVA!

The PVA 18s participated in the KRVA Open Regional Championships on May 9th at Penn State University. Despite missing 2 players, they swept their pool and then lost a tough match against Valley Forge in the semi-finals to finish tied for 3rd overall.

The 18s will finish their 2009 season (and club volleyball careers) at the Happy Volley Championships over Memorial Day weekend in State College, PA.

Go PVA 18s!

PVA 15 Navy Bid & Regionals Report

PVA 15 Navy competed in the KRVA Bid Tournament on May 2nd & 3rd in Williamsport, PA.

The team reached the semi-finals of the Silver bracket and finished tied for 9th overall in a tough field of teams.

14s Bid Report

The PVA 14s team experienced their first KRVA Bid Tournament on May 2nd & 3rd in Williamsport, PA. The travel tournament was a fun and challenging experience, starting with an impromtu round of musical chairs during the PVA Social on Friday night. The 14s played in the "dome" along with the 17s & 18s, so it was fun to be able to watch the older girls play. The girls played a lot of volleyball and had some great moments! After 2 days of volleyball, they advanced to the semi-finals of the silver division and finished tied for 7th overall against a lot of strong competition. PVA is proud of the team's effort and enthusiasm! We especially liked what Coach Joann calls the "matrix move" they do together whenever they make a kill (see photo with this article).

The 14s play their last event of the 2009 season at the Happy Volley Championships over Memorial Day weekend in State College, PA.

Go PVA 14s!
