Lady Guard Volleyball
In 2015, Head of School Rod Fletcher and Athletic Director Wally Dawkins made a concerted effort to build a girl’s program that would not only develop the girl’s athletic abilities, but also would foster their character and academic success
“This season the girls were asked to buy into the same goals as a group and buy into what our vision was as a program. I think the response to that challenge was more than we could’ve ever expected as a coaching staff. These girls wanted to achieve something that would make history and change the direction of this program, and I think that their hard work led to them being to do just that this season,” Coach Duty said. “They put the goals of the team above themselves, and ultimately God above all else.”
“Being apart of the Lady Guard Volleyball team is about so much more than high level volleyball. The girls have to maintain above average grades, be exemplary leaders in their community, and continue to grow in their journey in faith,” Duty said. “I couldn’t have asked for a better group of girls and coaches to begin this first year at Brook Hill with. We set the bar high and expect to continue to raise it every year.”
The 2019 volleyball season was an historic one for the Lady Guard. After going 21-6 during pre-season and district and claiming the district championship, the girls went on to become the first volleyball team from Brook Hill to make an appearance at the State Volleyball Tournament. Their historic playoff run brought about impressive wins over rival Legacy Christian Academy, as well as 2018 State Finalist, Austin St. Michael’s Academy. “We couldn’t be more excited to see what the 2020 season brings. With such a strong group of returners coming back next year, many of those being incoming seniors, we have high hopes for the team next year.”
