For Senior Night 2023, we played league-leading St. Augustine, a loss (LWLL).  26 Kills for the evening   In the second set, the one we won, he had eleven kills and two aces (two of each in the last five points with Saints at 24) for a  26-24 win.  A great Senior Night memory!.

One of the Team's best highlights of the year: winning the Silver Division Championship at the Sweetwater Tournament.   Here's the huge run at the end to secure the championship (Dash had six aces and a back row kill during the run):
