always came out to practice and they always came out to play; they were very coachable.” Pollock said they even helped each other on the field. “They coached themselves as well,” he said. “The guys on the team all had good input from each other and from the senior captains. We really had guys who understood what we had to do on a day-to-day basis to be successful.” Pollock said having such great senior leadership was crucial to this year’s team because of the different units he put out on the field. “We played four different formations this year — different sets as far as who’s playing offense and defense — and that’s pretty good for a high school team to understand different strategies of the game at this level,” he said. “I was really pleased with how they responded to changes depending on who we were playing and what time of the season it was.” Sometimes, players giving advice and pointing out mistakes can create animosity between them, but Stith found a way to get his point across without being forceful. “You just try to give positive criticism and not get down on each other,” he said. “There’s always room for improvement and you just have to be positive with the way you go about pointing things out.” Pollock said the team has a lot of experienced players returning. “We will lose a lot of speed next year, but we have guys coming back who played a lot of minutes and that will help us out so we won’t be starting from scratch,” he said. “We have our goalkeeper back and players from each area of the field that will help give us some stability. There’s some young sophomores and freshman that we have great expectations for as well.” And they better be ready because Pollock doesn’t expect the schedule to get any easier. The Greenwave played six ranked teams this year and three were in its district. “Our schedule next year should be of the same caliber,” he said. “We like to play good competition because if you don’t play the tough games, it’s hard to get ready come tournament time. We don’t want to kill ourselves but we also want to make it competitive.” The team started a freshman, one sophomore and four juniors throughout the season,
so many of the returning players will know what to expect. “It’s good that we got those guys some experience this year,” Pollock said. “We have six guys that started at one point or another and most of them started pretty consistently.” Stith left his returning teammates with one thought. “Always keep your head up and leave it all on the field” he said. “Give it your all, all the time, no matter what.” Hazelwood wished the team luck. “I want them to keep playing and practicing hard,” he said. “They’ve got to keep listening to the coaches and stay positive. Don’t worry if you lose a couple games, you’ll get it turned around.” Besides experience, the team has other positives to build upon. Pollock wanted his team to score 30 goals this season and it scored 69. The team also didn’t allow any corner-kick or free-kick goals, something he was very proud of. Pollock also said beating John Hardin in the district tournament was huge for his team because it lost to Hardin twice in the regular season. “I think the overall success as a whole was our best achievement this year,” Pollock said. “That’s something to build on for the future.”

moment of the season, the three agreed. “I felt like it was the only time all year that the girls didn’t play nearly up to their capability,” Butler said. “That was the only game I was disappointed with. They were just a little tight.” All three also agreed that beating Central Hardin on the road was one of the high points. The Bruins were a senior-laden team that competed in the state tournament five of the last six years — including this year. The players understand they will be on a marked team next year. “We’re going to do a lot of work in the off-season,” Butler said. “I think we’ll probably be the No. 2 team in the region starting out behind Owensboro Catholic, and they’re a powerhouse. Kentucky has some of the best teams in the entire country.” McGehee and Schmidt also plan on playing this summer with a traveling team. “A few of us girls are playing for KIVA — the Kentucky Indoor Volleyball Association,” Schmidt said. “It’s club ball, and we’ll travel around the United States to play different teams. A lot of the other girls are playing other sports like softball during the spring.”
