WCS Junior High Volleyball Team Undefeated
(October 2008) The junior high volleyball team at Westbury Christian School has made history! Not only did they win the district competition for the first time – they did so undefeated – 13-0! Coach Veronica Silvas was jubilant, “With the grace of God, our returning players managed to connect on the court and win by close numbers.”
The team played a hectic schedule with two to three games per week with the only break following Hurricane Ike. Coach Silvas said, “By the time we were in the middle of our season, all the girls were coming out of their shells and playing awesome.” Eighth grader Autumn Arnold came out this year with an unbelievable jump serve that gave the team an edge. Coach Silvas said, “Autumn has been a great team captain as well as a strong leader on the court. It also helped to have two great setters, Aki Aitsebaomo and Victoria Silvas, who were able to set from the front and back and work the net as well.”

The WCS junior high volleyball team was a more mature team this year. There were four players who had played for two years and one player who had been with the team for three years. Coach Silvas has been coaching the girls for three years. She said the girls took practice seriously – they worked hard and were focused 100% of the time.
Coach Silvas said, “I am very pleased and proud to have had the honor to coach this group of young ladies. WCS has a very bright future in volleyball.”
Westbury Christian School is a private, college preparatory, fully accredited, culturally diverse school offering unique educational opportunities for pre-k, elementary, middle and high school students. The school is located at 10420 Hillcroft at Willowbend.
