It has been 45 years since the NHHS volleyball team made a trip to the state tournament. This is the year-- our young lady athletes decided it had been long enough. They left Tuesday afternoon after a send off beginning at the high school, stopping at each school building, and parading down main street to head to Cedar Rapids.
On Thursday morning what seemed to be the entire Chickasaw Nation caravanned to Cedar Rapids and the Chickasaw volleyball team did not disappoint. They fought a hard 4 games and eventually fell to Tipton. This is just the beginning of what is surely to be a long history of appearances at the state volleyball tournament as Coach Geerts and her staff have built a strong and deep program that will last past the 2018 season.
In addition, the tournament staff recognized our own Anita Quirk as a community member that represents the character and good sportsmanship demonstrated by our student body and fan base throughout this amazing volleyball season. We look forward to the trip to the Cell next year. Great job, ladies!
