The 2007 Volleyball season has come to a close at this weekend’s AAC Tournament. The Lady Cavs lost to Bryan College in three straight games, 25-30, 11-30, and 25-30. “It’s disappointing to lose like this,” said Coach Gehris, “but our girls have never played this well against Bryan, so it was positive to see them play as well as they did. We wish our seniors well and we’ll miss them dearly. Now, it’s time to look to the future. It’s time to focus on our preseason and our recruiting. We have some great returners, and we will look to add some more solid student-athletes to better our program.” And better it will be- with solid returners like two-time NAIA Region Player of the Week Allison Baumgartner- the future is very bright. Baumgartner led all Lady Cavaliers offensively with 11 kills and five service aces.

Senior Danny Bowers leaves behind a great legacy at Montreat College with another fine, final performance with 8 kills and 13 digs.  Lyndsey Wall dished out 18 assists and 8 digs for the match, while freshman Rebecca Henderson tallied 9 assists of her own. 

Coach Gehris' girls end the season with a 14-18 overall record (5 more wins than last year) and 7-11 in the AAC.  Montreat College is anxious to see the continued improvements 2008 will have to offer!
