The Lady Pirates of Victor are in a building mode this year. Second year coach Sky Mitcham has a strong class of freshmen to build from with some seniors and juniors that have had experience. Madi Barta is a senior and handles much of the setting duties. Joining her is Haylea Wemple, another senior and Ashley Buchanan, a junior with good floor sense. Sophomore Bella Scichilone may be small but she is driven and works hard for the hit. Madi Bahr, another sophomore, is tall and figuring out how to block. Freshmen Abby Kay and Virginia Dahl-Brown are both quick and competitive. Although this team hasn’t had much success in the tough conference, they are learning and growing. Victor played Plains on Saturday and lost in three sets.
