The WHB girls varsity volleyball team is off to an awesome start this season with a winning record of 4-2 in League play and 6-2 in overall play.
This year, the team is led by Captains Alexa Smith and Morgan Tiska, seniors Brenna Hogan, Zoe Recchion, Ashlyn Kennedy, and Ivonne Grunseich. The juniors this year include Lauren Lorefice, Sarah Culver, and new comer Katie Parry. Sophomores include Bella Recchion, Caitlin Smith, Shea Casey, Alexis Pellechia, Sunny Foglia, Arianna Brierton, and Maddie Neuberger. New this year to the squad is freshman Sarena Choi.
Last Friday, the team beat Islip in what appeared to be a landslide win with Islip being undefeated and a League higher than Westhampton. The Lady Canes won three games to none in an impressive matter.
Senior Brenna Hogan said, “This game was exactly what was needed to boost our confidence and set the bar high for the rest of the games to come.”
Senior captain Morgan Tiska added, “We played with a lot of heart, never letting the ball touch the ground.”
The Canes are looking for a playoff run this year and are expecting themselves to go far into the postseason.
