Last Friday evening the girl’s volleyball team traveled to St. Michael to take on the Knights in a difficult playoff match. The Storm got off to a slow start and the Knights seemed to have an answer to every move the Storm made.  Unfortunately the Storm would get swept in this game, but the young team has a lot of talent and they hope this year will be a building block to a winning 2008-2009 season.
