On October 8th our boys and girls volleyball teams played Milwee Middle school. Once again all four teams won! This means that our JV boys have lost only one game! And finally our boys varsity team is still the only undefeated team in Seminole county! Sadly our season is coming to an end. Our final games for the regular season will be against South Seminole with girls at home and boys away. Come and support our teams in the final game of the season. This has been a great season of volleyball, just like many people have predicted!
