Quotes from Avonworth coach John Skarupa: "Sarah has been a pleasure to have in the gym in the short time I have known her, she comes in every day with a big smile even though she is wearing a mask it is very easy to see her smile. Sarah has solidified herself as our starting libero not only due to her skills but her leadership and experience that she brings to our backrow. Sarah continues to lead by example with every aspect that we look for as a senior as she is always seen talking to the underclassman and helping them along. I am excited to see the growth that Sarah will continue to experience as I know she still has a lot left to give to achieve her personal best."
