LE ROY — Southern Coffey County High volleyball senior Josie Weers had quite the final campaign of her high school career after being named First Team All-League in the Lyon County League as well as First Team All-State in the KVA 1A Division II.
Weers led her team with 4.9 kills per set and 397 total kills as well as one ace serve per set and 80 aces total. She was also second on the team with one dig per set and 78 total digs while also serving as one of the defensive leaders with 34 total blocks.
“Josie was a very complete player,” said Southern Coffey County head coach Jeff True. “She was a great hitter in that she had power, but also saw the floor really well. This season she was able to place attacks with a lot more accuracy, and also did a great job of tipping the ball into holes in the defense.”
The senior led her team to an impressive 30-8 record and a 2-1 mark in Lyon County League play. The Lady Titans had 22 sweep victories where they didn’t allow the opposing team to win a set. The team won a pair of playoff matches against St. Paul and Hartford.
“She was a great leader on and off the court,” True said. “She will bring an excellent knowledge of the game, a tremendous work ethic and a positive attitude. I think her teammates would say that she was a great team player. Someone that cared for her teammates, both on and off the court and someone that has a passion for the sport.”
Weers will take her talents to Allen Community College next year.
