Fall Sports Are Awesome

This week, October 7 to October 13, was busy for the Calvary Christian sports teams. The Varsity boys soccer team, Middle School boys soccer team, JV girls volleyball team, Varsity girls volleyball team, and Middle School girls volleyball team all participated in events this past week. Thanks to all the fans that supported the athletes!

After practicing all week, preparing for the upcoming Friday game, the Varsity girls volleyball team was ready. They were excited to travel all the way to Heritage Christian in Kalamazoo and play their hardest. With coaches Heather and Joy giving tips and encouraging comments during warm- ups, the tension between the two teams escalated. Game one started and ended with the Calvary Eagles on top! Coach Heather had nothing but praise for the Varsity Girls. Game two began. After a rough start, your Calvary Eagles finished the games with ease, now winning 2-0. The last game was definitely the most fun as the Varsity boys soccer came in to cheer the girls on. Varsity girls volleyball won in 3 games!!

The JV girls volleyball also played well on Friday. Practicing with the Varsity benefits them immensely. Although the girls did not win their game against Heritage Christian's JV, they have improved so much since the start of the season. Coach Heather and Coach Joy both are proud of the JV girls and excited of the teams future.

At the middle school volleyball tournament today, the Calvary Eagles played exceptionally well. Playing against the other schools in the Alliance League can be difficult and mentally challenging but the girls were able to focus and bring home a second place trophy! Thanks to Hayley and Taylor for working the concession stand and all the others who helped out running the clocks and line judging! Special thanks to Mr. Maine as well!

The Varsity boys had an exciting afternoon as well. Heritage Christian is first place in the conference and a very talented team. Our boys played hard and tough. The score ended up 1-2 and Heritage won. We are proud of our Varsity boys who finished third in the conference!

And last but not least, great job Middle School boys soccer! You represented Calvary well by playing hard and physical the entire season. If you had a chance to watch these kids you would agree that they always tried their best and gave all they had. We are excited to see these boys in future years as they have all improved this season! 

Great job sports teams!!!!!!!
