Oh, Diana, so sad that you and Jaci are going through this. Coaches are so unfair sometimes. I can't imagine with she is thinking. The seniors have worked hard to get where they are. They are at their prime and should be utilized. I just don't get it. Hugs to both of you!!! and to Glenn, too.

We had a talk with the athletic director, Tony, a couple of days ago. He has been a coach before, but not for volleyball but he understands a coaches point of view. According to him he agrees with the coach's choice of using the juniors because they get an extra year of experience. Glen and I spent some time talking to him and came away really fustrated with the school and the volleyball program. We did find out that Jaci could possibly play junior varsity again if the coach would allow her and other schools had to give their permission for a senior to play. Jaci didn't ask about this because she was told by another teacher that there was a rule that all seniors had to play on varsity.

Tony did some checking with other schools and they didn't have a problem with Jaci playing on jr varsity but the coach said no and when I talked to Jaci she wasn't interested either. So we are done with volleyball as far as Jaci is concerned. I'm upset that this could happen. My daughter won't letter in a sport that she was really good in.

On the other hand, I have a volleyball game in Caney this afternoon where 3 of my granddaughter's are playing. I'll be cheering them on!!
