Girls Volleyball Win 5A State Championship for Third Year

Valor Christian added a trophy and a banner to its collection once again in the 2024 5A CHSAA Girls Volleyball State Championships after sweeping Legend (25-23, 25-17, 25-20). 

The Eagles became the first team to win three years in a row in the state's largest classification since Evergreen won eight consecutive times from 1978-85. 

“Every year is just so different,” coach Jayne McHugh said. “And the best thing about this, is this is something they do that doesn’t define them. This is what they love to do. But they are defined by their Lord and Savior, and they are amazing young women who are so deserving. More them, than me.”

Valor Christian has only lost one match in the past three seasons, going 86-1 through that stretch. The 2024 volleyball season is now inscribed with historic implications.
