Volleyball is a very emotional sport. Every point is celebrated with much energy from the competing teams. I looked back on my volleyball images from the first couple weeks of the season and have included some of these emotion filled images.

Pittsburg volleyball players Andie Casper, Bethanne Elliott (6), Jordan Dee (22), Lizzy Willis and Alaura Short celebrate a point during the second set of their match Saturday morning against Girard. Pittsburg defeated host Girard in three sets (13-25, 25-22, 25-18) and won all three of its season-opening matches against Fort Scott, Girard and Columbus.
