7th/8th Girls Volleyball
Stillwater girl’s volleyball seeks to honor and glorify God by representing His name, our school, and our families on and off the court. Every athlete and coach yearns to give their best in every practice, off-season workout, scrimmage, and competitive game because they know that they are working for God and not for men. The hope and desire of this program is that these young girls will go on to be ambassadors of Christ wherever they may be called.
Schedule
Middle School volleyball competes against local teams in the Flathead Valley. They also have the opportunity to compete in local tournaments around the Flathead Valley.
