The Junction City Lady Jays volleyball team will host their only home match of the year tonight against Great Bend.
The Lady Jays are currently 1-5 on the season. Despite the record, Junction City head volleyball coach Katie DeHoff remains optimistic heading into tonight's matchup and for the rest of the regular season. "Our record does not necessarily indicate how we have played this season," DeHoff said. "We are really showing a lot of growth. We are focusing on the things that we do well and are starting to focus on things on the other side of the net."
In addition to it being their only home match of the season, tonight is also senior night. There are three seniors on the team and they are: Armani Coleman, Anja VonSprecklesen and Sara Rexrode. All will be honored prior to the match. "They have quite literally been with me since they were freshmen," DeHoff said. "It's been really cool to see them grow into a program that they are really proud of and to really grow into their roles as leaders."
The varsity matchup tonight between the Lady Jays and Great Bend is a dual, which is best of five sets. The varsity match follows the senior night ceremony and is set to begin at 7:00 p.m.
The freshmen and JV teams will also be active tonight. Freshmen will be in a dual with Topeka West in the Aux at 5:00 p.m. and JV will play against Great Bend at 5:00 p.m. in the main gym.
