Our 2020 season was unique in every way: daily temperature checks and wearing masks; constant cleaning of the volleyballs and equipment; being socially safe and responsible; and repeated and frequent challenging schedule changes. It truly took a village to get through it. Honestly, there were times in August that we really thought shutting the season down was inevitable. But, we all stayed optimistic and enthusiastically came to the gym everyday with hope. Frankly, the fact we got through the entire season without having to quarantine was a testimony to everyone; other programs weren’t so quite fortunate. We had constant challenges, and because of the commitment and dedication of each and every person in our program (family members included) we had a successful and exciting season; we should all be very proud! The girls were awesome on the court and off. They worked tirelessly to improve individually and were determined to improve their skills. As a result, all the teams had some great highlights and moments. The Varsity had an overall record of 23-12, brought the region cup back home to Norcross and advanced to the 2nd round of the state playoffs. Also, Bella Murray was selected Player of the Year for Region 7-AAAAAAA and Claire Catterton and Reesa Schroeder were selected to 1st Team All Region. Isabella Casagrande was selected to 2nd Team All Region. The JV swept longtime rival schools Mill Creek and North Gwinnett, and had a very impressive overall record of 18-16; and the Freshmen Team who finished with a 15-8 record and was still peaking at the end of the season during the Gwinnett County Championships. A truly impressive season all around. Thank you to all the parents for trusting us coaches during this difficult time. I know many of you were skeptical, nervous, and cautious about the season and allowing your daughters to play. We respect it was a very complicated and difficult decision. We took that responsibility very seriously and very much appreciate your trust. Lastly, I want to thank my coaches. Coach Murray, Coach Hood, Coach Sydney, and Coach Lindsay came to the gym each day (wearing masks during every single practice and game) with a positive mindset. Once it was decided that there would in fact be a season, they were all-in from the beginning and always gave 100% of their time and effort. We are truly lucky to have such a dedicated and passionate coaching staff. On behalf of the coaching staff, I think I can say that I am really looking forward to next season when, hopefully, things will look more normal. -Coach Cerneka
