Our lady Braves volleyball team has had a tough season so far. Although their record, with only one win under their belt, does not reflect the hard work they put forth, they have improved greatly from last year. With a varsity team consisting of 8 returning players, 7 of which are seniors, and 4 new comers, it is still a work in progress for them.

One of our own who has played on the volleyball team since her freshman year, Lani Stevenson, says that "we've had our ups and downs this year but overall this season has been the most exciting." The girls have developed a close relationship so far, and continue improving their skills.

The team had an important fundraiser game on October 8th, against the Paxon Eagles, to raise money for breast cancer awareness. Thanks to all the fans and help we had for this game, and to Parker Passion's performance in between J.V. and Varsity games. Twenty-five percent of all profits made will be given to Breast Cancer Funds, and the rest will be for the team to develop with. Senior night is also set for October 14th, where our seniors hard work and dedication this year, and previous years, will be recognized.

Do tell me...exactly how has the team improved from last year? Also, what is a breat and who does the money go to increase the awareness of breat cancer? Other than those, and perhaps telling us how the "work in progress" is going in the way of practices and whatnot, it's not bad article

While I'm at it, I just wanna say, "First comment w00000000!"

The team last year won games, you guys haven't won a game yet. So the information given is false. Remember if your doing an article to make sure your giving precise info.

It sounds like an advertisment.... ><
Stop being so biased. Its obvious that either you are on the team, or have a good friend on the team.

maybe an interview would make it better but ok article.

You could probably add what the coach and former players think or try to pursue this year. *Get quotes I guess*

Good article but maybe you could get an interview from one of the players or the coach. Also, watch spelling. ("breat" should be "breast"). That's all.

its not very interesting, no offence. also, its one big paragraph so its not very eye catch. try getting some tp students opinions about the team or else its biased, whether you intended to or not.
