Luckey Fall Sports Wrap-up:
- The Cross Country teams finished their season at the top of the BVL! Both teams earned the team league championship to be immortalized with the year 2024 on the championship banners hanging in the Luckey Gym. The runners appreciated the guidance of Coach Feldkamp and Coach Irvine in workouts to help set their personal best performances!
- The A-Team Cardinal Volleyballers’ earned the 2nd seed in the BVL tournament with a 13-2 record. They defeated Washington, then lost a heart-breaking three-set game to Linn in the semifinals. They came back to beat Valley Heights to take the 3rd Place medals. Their 15-3 season record was awesome!
- The B-Team finished with a 6-7 record, and the C-Team was 4-2-1. The girls improved and had fun! They thank Coach Hampton and Coach Hund for working with them this year.
- Lucas Vrbas said he enjoyed playing on the Luckey-BV football team despite the 0-7 season record. He thanked Coach Jared Russell for helping him to and from practice most of the season!
- It was a great fall season, Cardinals!
