The SCC Volleyball team has started their recruiting season off with a BANG! Signing four area athletes to the roster for 2010. Coach Reid's alma mater, New London High School, added three standouts to the Blackhawk's roster.
Jessica Lerdal, a 1st Team All-State selection averaged 5.2 kills per game last year, will add to the team's outside hitting force. Sasha Noel, averaged 2.3 kills per game and 3.1 digs per game last year for the Tiger's will also work on her hitting and her backrow skills for the Blackhawks. And last, but not least, Taylor Delaney, averaged 8.5 assists per game and 2.9 digs per game, will be back-up setter for the Blackhawks and will also hone in on her backrow playing abilities.
New London was 30-10 last season and advanced to the state tournament for the fifth straight year. The Tigers were a combined 137-28 in the trio's four years, including 33-3 in the SEI Superconference South Division.
Also adding to the Southeast Iowa recruiting class, will be hitter Karla Hester. Hester is 5'11" all-around hitter that will probably fill in the middle or right side position for the Blackhawks. Karla was a 4 year starter for Winfield Mt. Union averaging 2.1 kill and serving at 91.8 percent for the Lady Wolves last season.
