MIDWAY SNAPSHOT OF ALL 3 LEVELS

As October rolls around, it is important to look at where each team is, look at some highlights and look at seasonal and long term goals.

9th GRADERS

This mainly inexperienced crew has bonded quickly and through skill development and more game experience, these young ladies have overcome much adversity and have found a resiliency that will serve them well in the future as their 7W-1L record indicates.  Their 3 set victories are teaching this young crew how to come back from deficits and win in highly adverse and stressful conditions.


JV SQUAD
9W-3L
3rd Place Heal The Children Tourney

Despite some tough losses, the JV Squad has been very successful thus far in the 2019 season.
This by far is the best JV offense in program history at this point in the season.  This team has a chance to hit 400 kills in a season, a feat never accomplished by any other JV Squad. 

Jackie Szabados is currently sitting at 43 digs with a real chance to hit 87 and surpass the #3 all-time digs leader, Rosie Fernandes back in 2005.

Catherine Eldridge is at 38 kills, Olivia Lawlor at 37 and Eva Oberhuber at 36, all chasing Sarah Maldonado´s 76 kills for 3rd.  Madison young is #2 with 78 (2015) and Annabella Yorio is #1 at 80 kills (2017).

The #1 assists leader is Taylor Thompson with 136 assists and the #2 slot is held by Alisha McDonnell with 119.  Jordan Parella is sitting at 118 at this point so she should set a brand new record this year.

With a current record of 8W-3L, the primarily sophomore squad has a chance to match or set the new wins record.  Each year since 2016 the #1, 2 and 3 records have been set (17-6, 16-6, 17-7).

VARSITY
6W-7L
Finalist - Fall Classic Tourney

2015 - 4W-9L
2016 - 3W-10L
2017 - 5W-8L
2018 - 5W - 8L
2019 - 6W - 7L

This is the best record since 2011 at this juncture of the season.  There is a real chance for this team to finish .500 and have a chance to qualify for Group Championships for the first time since 2011.

Summit is currently ranked 35/67 in Group 2 and only the top 32 teams make the tournament.

Val Guzman holds the #3 record for aces with 57.  Summit has a 23 (Walsh) and a 24 (Guidetti) with a shot to take Guzman´s spot.

Kiera Stocks sits at 158 digs.  Top 3 are Guzman 174, Jenny Ly 225 and Juli Avery 233.
Stocks is also averaging slightly over 5 digs per set which would put her #1 in the list right now.
Stocks is also averaging 5.44 receptions per set, just outside the top 3, but her total of 158 puts her in striking distance  of the top 3 who are Avery at 301, Guzman 302 and Mendez 324.

With 76 kills, Sarah Maldonado is sitting pretty looking at 134 and 161 as the #2 and 3 top kill leaders, very reachable by current rate of production.

Kasey Walsh / Kyra Guenther combined thus far for 209 assists with 344, 433 and 426 as targets.
