These weren’t just any games though. Last year our beloved teacher and friend Mrs. Meyer passed away right before school started. Everyone who had known her was heartbroken. During the 2012 volleyball season, we decided to have a pink out night in honor of her. Last year the JV and varsity teams got special jerseys. They also gave out pink bracelets that said, “Mrs. Meyer” and “Sweetie Poo Pie,” a name she called everyone. This year the tradition was continued. The JV and varsity teams got pink jerseys, and everyone remembered our friend who was no longer with us.
At 5:30 the JV game began. When it first started, it looked like Freedom would win the first game. They pulled ahead, and we couldn’t stop them. Point after point they got ahead. And then the momentum switched sides. We started working together better and slowly gained back those lost points. Eventually we brought it back for a win. Then there was the second game. The momentum was still with us and we got a quick win. That was the end of an exciting match for JV. Varsity played a great game as well. Freedom was no match for them. Our Eagles finished the match fast with only three games.
Their last game ended our day of remembrance at CCS that Tuesday. I really hope next year the tradition will be continued. It is definitely something that you do not want to miss. Between the pink out honoring our friend Mrs. Meyer, the great games, and Calvary’s family atmosphere, it was an awesome night to be a part of. - Megan Mitchell, Sophomore
