The top ranked 4A-II Sunnyslope Vikings volleyball team, after what they consider an eternity, are finally ready to get the state playoffs underway. It has been over a week since most of the 4A conference last played a match.

The Lady Vikings dominated post-season region honors. The All-Wells Fargo II region 1st team was led by region MVP Emma Ridley. She was joined on the 1st team by setter Katie Meyers, and specialist Sarah Johnson. Second team honors went to Middle Cassandra Burruel, and outside Caelin Hiller.
