Wester Reserve ended last season with a record of 22-4. They had a great season, beating some tough teams. Losing just 3 Seniors, they should still be pretty good this year. Returning their go-to OH, Junior, Alyvia Hughes Alyvia Hughes 5'9" | OH Western Reserve | 2024 State OH , who led the Blue Devils in hitting and aces last season will definitely help. Also returning is Junior, Lisa Eichert who did well hitting and blocking and will be expected to continue that into the pre-season/summer leagues. The Blue Devils will also be counting on Juniors, Lauren Mayorga and Angelina Cappabianca to contribute this season as they did last season. Rounding out the returning playmakers is Senior, Gianna Paris who did a great job last year and will surely be taking on a major role this season as well.
The Blue Devils will be starting their season with a long anticipated re-match against the Wellsville Tigers. Last Season the 5 set thriller ended in the Tigers favor, so I am sure the Blue Devils will be looking to get a little payback. This is one of the matches that I am looking forward to this upcoming season as both teams bring to the table some big hitters and strong backrow players. The game is set for 8-22 @ Wellsville High School. This will be a great way to start the season for both of these teams.
