On Friday, April 19th, 2024 at 4:00 PM in the North Hollywood High School Main gym, the Huskies Boys Volleyball team hosted their Senior Night.
Senior Night is a special event to honor the achievements of seniors at their last home game. It’s a time of recognition. The event is filled with emotions as it marks the end of a chapter for Senior athletes.
Before going against Arleta High School for their Senior Night, the boy’s volleyball team had an overall score of 11-12 (6-4 in the League.) The last time they played Arleta was on Monday, March 18th, 2024. The Huskies won against Arleta 3-0. So, the team was confident that they would get a sweet farewell moment.
Senior Captain, Jacob Miguel (8), has been obtaining 2.7 kills per set, 0.4 aces per set, and he has a total of 77 kills for the huskies. Senior, David Bae (19), has a .419% hitting percentage. In addition, Senior, Brondzie Ansah (13), has acquired 0.9 digs per set, and has secured 63 total receptions.
So, our seniors are a very talented group, and they will be missed by underclassmen, coaches, and staff. These seniors will be missed for their leadership, experience, and their spirit. Their departure leaves big shoes to fill, but the upcoming seniors will fulfill those goals.
As their time here at North Hollywood High School, the boys volleyball team comes to a close. The players express their appreciation for their time in the program:
