Almost a month since the last post, and not much new! In volleyball, we had our first three games on a night a couple weeks ago. Won the first against Bonner, and lost the other two - I played main setter and team captain! I am now going to the morning varsity practices at 6am (Coach suggested it), which are twice a week, for extra practice, as well as after school! I am loving it all.
We had a tournament in Atchison on Saturday (yesterday), and it was a great experience. 10 teams participated, and Sumner advanced to the semi-finals and placed 4th! The Sumner freshman team had not reached the semi-finals for at least three years. Our coach was happy - and we got medals! The 3 games we lost were close, too; by the end we were exhausted, but loved it.

The next two or three weeks we have a lot of games and a couple more tournaments; our first (and sadly, only) home game on October 1st against Wyandotte, Schlagle and Washington. This is a quad, so we play three games total. If you want to come and see us play, we start around 4:30pm, in our gym at Sumner! Comment with any questions. :) I think there is about $4-5 fee per person to get in.
Not much else to tell, except that Olivia and I are in the final stretch of our novel, Go East on No Road! About 8 more chapters to write, then editing. We have about 32 chapters so far. Also, we are about to make another order for the poem book, Ripples ($9), so comment or email me if you want to order one through us!
Thanks for reading!
