Team: Scribner-Snyder
Mascot: Trojans
Colors: Red and White
Class: D-2
Head Coach: Shelly Schulenberg (52-77 career record)
2015 record: 8-25
Returning Starters: 7
Overview:
The Scribner-Snyder Trojans return a lot of talent off last year's team that struggled to an 8-25 record.
7 starters return for Head Coach Shelly Schulenberg, and they are Savanah Miller (5’8” OH Senior), MacKenzy Schreck (5’8” MH Senior), Nicole Boyle (5’7” S Junior), Kaylee Boyle (5’8” OH Junior), MicKayla Mandel (5’8” RS Senior), Ronnie Litz (5’8” MH Senior), and Daria Risch (5’4” DS Senior).
These seven returning starters also make up Scribner-Snyder's starting lineup this year.
The Trojans won five out of their last seven matches to end last season.
Schulenberg says the players used that momentum this summer. "We did have a great ending to our season and that carried over into our summer league and summer team camps. The girls are excited and ready to play and finish each match."
7 of Scribner-Snyder's matches went the distance in 2015, but the Trojans lost 6 of them. Schulenberg says her team wants to get things turned around this season. "We struggled to finish matches last year. We had several games that we should have won. We dominated the 1st set in some of the games and then just didn’t finish losing in 3. The girls are determined to have a successful season and having all the starters back is a good thing. We are still lacking in height but they are determined to have success this year. We are looking for be a force this year."
I think Scribner-Snyder is definitely capable of having a better season this year than they did last year.
Having a lot of starters back really helps, and I think the experience the Trojans return will help them win more matches this season.
I think you'll see this veteran team find ways to be more competitive in matches and push some of the stronger teams on their schedule.
Scribner-Snyder won't be the tallest team on the floor in many cases, but often times smaller teams are quick and athletic.
I think 15-20 wins is definitely attainable for this team. Scribner-Snyder has a good blend of juniors and seniors, and that should help them be more successful this year than they were last year.
I'm really interested to see if the momentum gained at the end of last year carries over to this year.
I think this season has the potential to be pretty good for the Trojans.
Season Outlook:
Scribner-Snyder looks to improve upon last year's 8 wins. Schulenberg says her team has to work together to get back to double digit wins. "With hard work and dedication. If the girls want to win, they will but they have to work as a team and not individuals. If we play taller teams, we will just need to play better defense."
The Trojans won 14 games in 2014.
Schulenberg says the team is excited to work together and see if they can push some of the teams on their schedule. "Success and unity among the players. Challenging our opponents and playing until the end."
Scribner-Snyder has a difficult schedule, facing the likes of Cedar Bluffs, Howells-Dodge, and Oakland-Craig right off the bat.
Other tough matches include BRLD, Humphrey/Lindsay Holy Family, Mead, Stanton, West Point-Beemer, Tekamah-Herman, and Wisner-Pilger.
I think the Trojans will win their fair share of matches this year, but exactly how many remains to be seen. Schulenberg hopes her team's hard work leads to great results on the court. "The girls thus far have been working hard during conditioning and have great attitudes. All the girls this year have potential and that is a positive motivator for everyone. We have some younger girls that will push for positions and that is a good thing. The team wants to be able to compete in all of our matches and finish the season with good results and confidence that we can play with any team on our schedule."
Scribner-Snyder is in Sub District D2-2 with Humphrey St. Francis, Mead, and Cornerstone Christian. I really think the Trojans are capable of winning the sub district and getting to a district final.
This appears to be the year for Scribner-Snyder so we will see what they can do. If the Trojans can win a good number of their matches and have a breakout season this year, a foundation could be laid for success for years to come.
This season is all about winning and building a winning foundation for Scribner-Snyder Volleyball.
This is the year to win and get the job done. It's time for the Trojans to rise up and have a successful season.
All the tools are in place for great things to happen, it's simply a matter of going out there and making it happen.
