Jackie Barrios, one of the main outside hitters for the Varsity volleyball Team has been selected as Athlete of the Month because of her talent and personality on and off the court. Jackie's volleyball journey started in 8th grade. At first just trying it for fun with a group of her friends at TeWinkle Middle School, but then continuing it every year through high school ever since. Jackie didn't know that this would lead to a multitude of memories and lessons shaping the person she is today. 

In the summer on June 23, 2025 was when the Cross Country program first started, and was arranged by coaches, Mr. Anaya and Ms. Kopecky, who both had a goal to recruit as many athletes as they possibly could. In the first few weeks of cross-country practices, Mr. Anaya and Ms. Kopecky found it quite troublesome, as only 3-5 students consistently showed up. They still didn’t lose hope and stayed motivated with their current group of students, as they believed that over time, they would recruit more and more people. The program soon began to grow as their group of 3-5 students quickly turned into 10-15 students, and it was this progress that kept both coaches believing that this was the start of something more special than just running.
