Eisenhower Volleyball Team Undefeated in Conference

The Eisenhower Junior High girls volleyball team put together and incredible record the past two seasons, in part because of their comfort playing together.

They went 33-3 in 2011 and 2012, and were 12-0 in conference this season. 

Coach Jennifer Crum said most of the girls have been playing together for four or five years now between Eisenhow and Lions Junior Volleyball Club. 

Crum noted that two of the three losses the past two season were at a GLC club tournament, losing to two Illini Elite club teams. 

The girls also participated in Volley for the Cure at Hinsdale South, where they played in an exhibition match against Westview Hills.

The coach said she was  very excited about the season and is proud of the team's accomplishments over the past three years. But she "is extremely sad to see this group of girls go, but knows they will have successful volleyball careers at DGS and Hinsdale South."

The members of the team include: Nicole Kilrea, Abby Overmann, Emily Drenth, Tara Fogarty, Athena Appavu, Allison Johnson, Amanda Pultorak, Paola Gonzalez, Emma Larson, Maureesa Aver and Brianna Cabrera.
