Spikers' l sa The Climber volleyball girls wrapped up their season with a flourish last week, landing a pair of honorable-mention spots on the all-conference list. So singled out by vote of the Western Cascade Conference's head coaches were the Climb- ers' lone seniors, setter Carissa Krumpols and middle blocker Marissa Hill. The two fourth-year veterans had played especially key roles in the Climbers' season finale, a loss-streak-ending victory in four games over visiting Clover Park on the hosts' traditional Senior Recognition Night. "They played really well," says coach Steve Morgan. "It's kinda nice to go out with a win." HIS ALL-LEAGUERS' strengths, adds Coach, were obvious even in defeat - regrettably commonplace in a rebuilding season that ended with just three wins in 14 match- es. "Carissa's strength is she's really a competitor," says Morgan. "She really worked through pain. She had a knee injury this year and she worked through that. "She just has the will to win, and what she may lack in talent she makes up for with effort and perseverance. "And Marissa's strength is her consistency. She improved throughout the year and through- out her career, and she probably played her best volleyball at the end of her career, which is a testa- ment to her and how she wants to improve. "AND YOU KNEW what you were gonna get with Marissa. You didn't have to worry about that. You knew that she was gonna give you her best, but she wasn't gonna have these really high games and really low games. "And she actually got mentally better throughout the season - smarter: where to put the ball. She didn't, you know,jump as high as some other middles, and so she adapted. "She hit more angles, and she hit off-speed - little things so she could be successful." TEAM AWARDS were accord- ed as usual - by vote of the Climb- ers themselves. Varsity honorees included ju- nior Briana McKinley (MVP), Ms. Krumpols (leadership award win- ner), Ms. Hill (Coach's Award win- ner), junior Courtney White (most inspirational) and sophomore Mi- chelle Davis (most improved). The junior varsity, coached by Steve Beck and Liz (deWaalMale- fyt) Canright, yielded these honor- ees: MVP Carly Madison, leader- ship winner Nicole Brown, most inspirational Jessica Lanman and Coaches' Award ,winner Hanna Erickson. EXPECT TO SEE 'em all back next year, does he? Coach Mor- gan? "Yes - except for the seniors," he quips, laughing. 'Teah, I'm looking forward to it. 'Tou know, one thing I really liked about these girls is they never got too down after a loss. You know, they were disappointed right afterwards, but the next day at practice you really couldn't tell whether we'd won or lost. They knew what they needed to work on, and they were always willing to work on it. "And that's something I was trying to work on all year, is that 'When you win, you know, you act like you've been there before, and when you lose you use it as a guide to getting better.'" ---Bowling ............
