2024 Season

This year we had 50 athletes trying out for our 2 teams.  It is exciting that so many are interested in trying out for volleyball, but it is very sad that we can't offer them all a place to play, socialize and have fun.  The young women who didn't make the team are very good players, and we wish them the best.  We hope we will see many of them again at intramurals, open gyms and tryouts next year. 
 
Our schedule this year will be a little different.  We have fewer matches but more tournaments.  We are looking to add more matches/scrimmages but some of the best competition will be in our own gym during practice.  Congratulation to everyone that made the team and we're looking forward to a great year.

#PLAY4ASHLEY -  We'll Never Forget
During the summer of 2019 the PFMS community lost Ashley Stout in a tragic accident.  Ashley was friends with many of the players on the volleyball team.  On Monday 9/23/19 the teams from MNMS and PFMS showed their love for Ashley and support for her family.  We will never forget her.  As the years go by, it's still hard for us to believe.  Our thoughts go out to the entire Stout family forever.
 
Meredith and Mayra address the crowd.
