State victory for Grizzlies!

Denver, Colo. -
Big dreams and hard work culminated Saturday night at the
Denver Coliseum, in what some would say, was an impossible
victory for the young Lady Grizzly volleyball team. Squaring
off against Colorado Springs School for the final round of
championship play in the 2A division, Fowler, led by head
coach, Sandy Moss and assistant coach, Crystal Autry,
claimed their title in three sets.
This championship marks the eleventh state title for Fowler
High School volleyball and the first for Coach Moss. The
Grizzlies last brought home a trophy in 2005 under the
leadership of Dusty Lotrich.
CSS came to state tournament play with a 25-1 record, Fowler
being their only loss the week before at regional playoffs.
The young Grizzly team, made up mostly of freshmen and
sophomores, came in with a 23-3 record.
Following two days of play, Fowler faced the championship
match with four nearly flawless wins. Mancos and Wray on
Friday were beaten in three sets each, as was Sangre de
Cristo on Saturday during semi-finals. Saturday morning's
match against Burlington was the only game in which Fowler
suffered a loss giving one set of a four-set match to the
Cougars.
By Saturday night the Grizzlies were primed to ride their
winning streak all the way to the top. Performing at their
peak, Fowler played their final game in almost perfect form
taking set one 25-20, set two 25-21 and set three 25-13.
Lone senior, Morgan Moss, set practically every ball sent
her way with a touch that never wavered, even under
pressure. That skill in addition to Moss' ability to play
the floor and finesse some outstanding dinks into
unprotected enemy territory earned her the Class 2A State
Tournament Most Valuable Player award from the Denver Post
and The Rocky Mountain News.
Freshman hitter, Bethany Moss and sophomore hitter, April
Gonzales reigned down hit after hit on their opponents
throughout the tournament weekend with 25 kills between them
in the final game. Bethany Klinkerman and Shelby Hartless
also played the front line admirably, blocking shots and
sending in kills of their own; two for Klink and one for
Hartless.
Named to the Denver Post Class 2A All-Tournament, six-member
team, Gonzales and Moss were the only two underclassmen. The
other four members named, including Morgan Moss, were
seniors.
On Fowler's back line Chelsey and Karlee Wager, along with
Kirsten Grasmick, played hard pulling out several
spectacular digs and rarely missing a return. When rotated
to the front, Chelsey Wager stepped up to supply the Grizzly
hitters with several excellent sets.
Called into varsity play first thing Friday morning as a
server, Jenna Waggoner faced up to the challenge commendably
despite the pressure of state tournament competition.
"I am extremely proud of the girls. They played their best
volleyball the last day of season. That's what any coach
would hope for," stated Moss. "They stuck with the game plan
and didn't panic, and this was the end result."
"I think by far, our girls had better fundamentals. Passing
the ball and playing defense prevailed here. It's all about
passing and receiving," she added.
No winning team is complete without supporting players and
team managers. Serving as managers were Lindsey Moss, Jayde
Rein and Moriah Shields. Throughout the course of the season
Megan Hollenbeck, Ashleigh Fox, Hannah Switser and Jessica
Rein were called into varsity play at various times, always
ready to step up when asked.
