The Â鶹ÊÓƵeast Vipers 15U Club Volleyball team based in Arcola, made up of kids from across the southeast have been working together since December to prepare for their first tournament, which was held this weekend in Lumsden, Sk.
           The team has 13 young women including Gracie Vogel of Stoughton, McKenna Harkness and Shae Johnston of Arcola, Haley Chapman of Manor, Ashleigh Wolensky and Kennedy Magotiaux of Bellegarde, Amy Stolz of Wawota, Morgan Fichter of Estevan, and, from Lampman, Sadie Fichter, Katelyn Hutt, K'lyn Duttenhoffer, Hailee Fleck, and Kenzie Fleck.
           In Lumsden they took on QCVC Royal Elite, Element Panthers, and Estevan Extreme in round robin action. They then took on three other teams including QCVC Royal Black, DLK Attack, and Â鶹ÊÓƵ Shore Stingers. With a record of three wins and three losses throughout the day the girls worked hard to place 5th overall.
           For the first tournament of the year the girls did a great job. Never giving up they fought for every point and even overcame the odds against them in a match where they brought themselves out of an eight point deficit to win that match.
           Everyone is excited for the upcoming season and to see what these girls can do.
