The Joliet Catholic Academy girls volleyball team was recently featured in the Joliet Herald news, previewing the 2015 season. The Angels started the 2014 season with a 9-12 record, then had the biggest comeback in IHSA Class 3A volleyball history. After finishing with a 25-17 mark, they became the first team with more than eight losses to make it to the state championship match.

“I think that we have a lot to look forward to this season,” JCA coach Christine Scheibe said. “We’re building off of the momentum last year going down to state. I think that these girls have had a taste of what that experience is like, and they want to get a taste of it again. Although we may not be the tallest team out there, we’re a competitive team, and we’re going to be setting our goals high and working towards them all season long.”

Goals are the same each season for Joliet Catholic: Make it down to state.
