Sailing
This season, we learned more about the united sailing team, hearing directly from a varsity captain about what the experience means to them.
Boys Volleyball
This season, a new club sport started for both Athens and Troy: Boys Volleyball. It was a way to keep active in the springtime and to also help grow the sport so it would then be recognized by the MHSAA.
Both teams would faceoff tournament style, playing two to three teams each match day. In the following years, the hopes are that the sport grows beyond the current teams involved.
