North volleyball goes 2-1

September 5, 2008

The Shawnee Mission North volleyball team opened its season Thursday by posting a 2-1 record at the Topeka High Quadrangular.

The Indians defeated Topeka High and Shawnee Mission South and dropped a match to traditional Class 5A powerhouse Shawnee Heights.

Senior Jazmin Richmond led the team with a .357 hitting percentage. Junior setter Kara Cornwell fired 11 service aces and senior Libero Chelsea Kiefer had a team-high 23 digs.

North next plays on Thursday, Sept. 11, against Lawrence High, Lawrence Free State and Olathe North at ONHS before heading to the always-tough Lansing Invitational on Sept. 13.

Talking points

Do you think Veterans Day should be a prominent holiday?

Absolutely. We wouldn’t be able to sit here and eat lunch like this if it weren’t for the veterans. We’ve got millions of people that fought and died to save this country; it should be more than a bank holiday.
