Lady Bluebirds Volleyball: Cole Camp Jr. High, JV, and Varsity volleyball teams were all at Smithton October 15th. Junior High games were played in a 2nd gym while the JV and Varsity played in the main auditorium.
In the JV game Cole Camp with a 4-point spurt and then an 11-2 run mid game secured a 25- 15 win in the first set.
Smithton with the 4 pt start in the 2nd set and the Lady Tigers still led 15-14. After a Kristin Carl score regaining possession, Kaylan Poe served 5 which proved to be the margin needed. Cole Camp took the final set 25-20.
Just a few days ago Cole Camp and Smithton varsity teams had split two sets during the Conference Tournament. Smithton also sporting a nice 15-7-1 record coming into tonight's play.
Good defensive work by Kate Harrison and Leah Allison in the opening set. Junior Lady Tiger Aubree Huddleston is their leading hitter with 10 to 12 kills per game. Cole Camp was leading 14-13, however an 8-1 effort put Smithton ahead 21-19. Could Cole Camp close it out? Yes they did with a 6-1 finish to win 25-22.
Mandy Goosen and Marilyn Hesse knocked down several scores in the 2nd set. Both can also play defense as Hesse turned around a Huddleston haymaker. With Olivia Pilant serving, Cole Camp led 21-10 and seemed to be cruising. But a 7 point streak by Smithton made it a game again real quick. Back and forth until a final hit by Goosen closed out a 25-22 win in the middle set.
Andrea Dieckman and ace and several kills in the 3rd set. Cole Camp led 11-6 when Smithton Coach Laurel Oelrichs asked for a timeout. Her Lady Tigers responded with a strong midset to move ahead 20-18. Dieckman followed with a score and stuff and Cole Camp went on to squeak by with a 25-23 victory!

Congratulations to September's Students of the Month! September's characteristic was academic achievement.
Here's what some of their nominating teachers said about them:
Lilly - "It is obvious that Lilly excels in the area of academic achievement. I think what sets her apart from this is her ability to maintain her achievements while tending to her many duties, one of which being the Student Council President. She commits fully to her obligations while maintaining composure under pressure."
Lindsey - "Lindsey has grown as a student since her eighth grade year and has always had a great attitude, very charitable and open to what the projects or work entail. Her skill set has grown very well."
Rylee - "Rylee is such a joy to have in class. She is someone I can depend on to lead by example and complete her work to the best of her ability. She asks thoughtful questions, contributes to discussions, and is an excellent writer."
Maddie - "This young lady does a great job in and out of the classroom. She is always willing to speak up in class, ask questions, help other and is always ready to go. She also works hard outside of the classroom and is a joy to have around."
Charlotte - "Charlotte deserves the academic achievement award because she is always working so hard on everything she does. She asks for help when she needs it, gets work checked to make sure she is doing her best, and participates in classroom discussions in meaningful, productive ways. Charlotte never settles when it comes to her academics. She is always pushing to show her best ability."
McKinlee - "McKinlee works hard in everything she does. There is no halfway anything with her. She completes her work on time, and with thoroughness. She listens attentively, and participates in classroom discussion."

Lady Bluebird Volleyball: Play resume Saturday morning the 12th of October using both gyms at Cole Camp. Earlier games had thinned the herd from 10 to 4, of which Cole Camp and Sacred Heart met in one semifinal game. Stover and Northwest were the other semi-finalist.
Facing Sacred Heart at 11:45 a.m. Cole Camp edged out to an 8-6 lead, thanks in part to active play at the net by Mandy Goosen. Then it was freshman Madilynn Ogle up to serve. How long did she stay there? Till it was over! Seventeen (yes 17) serves including a handful of aces for a 25-6 win. Short and sweet!
Second set much closer. Cole Camp up by 4, then Sacred Heart ahead by 2 midway. Goosen with 5 serves helped Cole Camp re-established a 21-14 lead. Strong finish by Marilyn Hesse as she hit a kill between the ankles of a Lady Gremlin. Guess the ball was there so fast she didn't have time to put her arms down for a dig. Cole Camp won the 2nd set 25- 16 to advance to the finals.
Kills-Goosen 14, Dieckman 4, Hesse 4, Allison 4
Digs-Hesse 7, Harrison 6, Allison 6, Goosen 5

Blocks-Dieckman 4

Now to the finals with Cole Camp and Stover starting at 2:20 on a beautiful fall day outside. Turns out the conditions inside weren't too bad either for the Cole Camp team and fans.
Steady and stingy could describe the Bluebird attack early. No long runs by Cole Camp, but defensively they limited Stover to just one point at a time. Therefore and 11-7 Lady Bluebird lead midway. Olivia Pilant then served 6, and the intimidating presence of Dieckman with a kill and back-to-back blocks of Ashlyn Pinzke, Stover's dominating hitter. Nice work! Now up by 10, Cole Camp kept up the pressure till a Pilant set and another Dieckman kill sealed a 25-16 win!
The Lady Bulldogs didn't go hide, in fact they worked up a 9-5 lead in the 2nd set. Kate Harrison and Leah Allison with several digs midway, yet Stover still led 18-15 looking to force a 3rd set. The Lady Bluebirds said, "naw this set ain't over yet".
Cole Camp pecked their way back to a tie at 20 and Goosen serving. Three miss hit balls by Stover followed. Then a Dieckman block, a Stover point, and a final Dieckman block and Cole Camp won the Championship with a 25-21 victory! Great work ladies.
Kills-Hesse 8, Goosen 7, Dieckman 7, Allison 4
Digs-Hesse 13, Ogle 7, Pilant 6, Harrison 6, Allison 6
Assists-Ogle 14, Pilant 11
