 Hi, this is Kristen Brooks reporting from the Green Carpet, this 2018 Stevenson Gala here with Katie Lefford, sophomore, women's volleyball, and beach volleyball. Hi, Katie. Hi. Thanks for being with us. So tell me about this past season for you. It was an amazing one. Volleyball or beach volleyball? Let's start with women's volleyball indoor. Well it was really awesome to actually get to play this year because I didn't get to play because of you. But it was just great to be able to play with everyone and it was just much better than last year. And how did the season end for you guys? We ended up losing the second round of NCAA's which we hope that we won but it was an honor to be a part of it. And you guys hosted the first time regionals of NCAA's, how amazing was that? I can't explain, it's different. Last year it was awesome because we got to travel to another school and then this year it was awesome to have all those schools travel to us. So it was just a different feeling than it was last year. Absolutely. So what would you describe your team dynamic or culture like? We're very unified, like we want to be as together as we can which I feel like differs from a lot of other schools or a lot of other teams at Stevenson and I think that really makes us stand out. Absolutely. Is there a game this past season that you can't get out of your head or you play over and over again? The first Juniata game, the first time we played them. We weren't supposed to win and then we beat the first ranked team that we had all season and it was just really awesome. That's great. Okay so beach volleyball, how did that go? You're still playing, you hosted this weekend right? Yes, we're actually done now. Okay. But Lauren and I, she's my beach partner and we played together last year and then this year and it was just amazing how different it was from before to now and it's just, I'm really sad to see her go. Do you feel like your beach game has helped improve your indoor game and vice versa? Yes, I really do because I just, this year and last year were completely different. It was all beach I think. So who do you want to give a shout out to? Who's impacted your Stevenson career so far? Obviously my parents are everything and I truly think my dad really helped me with everything at Stevenson. Great, thank you for being here Katie.
