Tates Creek Volleyball

Tates Creek Volleyball has had some very unique challenges:
  1. Coming back from loss of key senior players
  2. Expectations associated with being first Lexington team to reach KHSAA final four
  3. New head coach ( building an entirely new staff [not an easy thing to do] )
  4. Young varsity squad ( three freshman and an eighth grader )

Since so many freshman have been playing varsity, there were only 6 left to play on the freshman team and they are doing very well. They have not lost a single game (they have won every match in 2 games) and really haven't been challenged yet. That will change when they play the freshman from Lafayette, Paul Dunbar and Henry Clay. The competition at the freshman level so far is very disappointing. That must be a huge advantage for the Louisville schools. The interest there allows them to field deep teams that get to play competitively at Freshman, JV and Varsity levels.

If you want to follow their season, you can track the team at www.tatescreekvolleyball.com

I have taken pictures at a few of their games as well:
Madison Southern (Freshman)
Madison Central Game (JV/V)
Bourbon County Game (F/JV/V)
