Kelly did not lose a match until sectionals. She's a great athlete, a very consistent baseline hitter.

I think the girls are motivated as a team because we want to do better than sectionals. We want to actually make it to the state. We made it to the top eight last year, so the main goal is to make it to the top four as a team.

I hope Kelly's goal is to advance to state and possibly make it another round since she knows more about what the competition is like. Hopefully she'll make it to the finals.

I think Nic definitely has a chance to make it to the finals. It depends on the draw. We don't know what region he'd be playing in the state if he advances that far.

Playing the No. 1 position isn't easy in any situation, and he had a great season. He got off to a little bit of a slow start, but he did improve. He's one of the strongest players we've had at Page.

We called it a tag. He was not called out for being out of baseline,
