Marist girls varsity volleyball beat Normal West at Richton Township Monday night to clinch the super-sectionals and punch their ticket to the state championship game.
“We were ecstatic, so excited.We had a really tough route to get downstate. Everybody was thrilled to clear the last couple hurdles,” said Coach Jordan Vidovic.
“We have worked so hard for everything, and I think the biggest factor is we all trust each other,” said player Tessa Dowling, junior.
They will compete for the state title Friday and Saturday at Illinois State University in Bloomington.
“I think for us, we just want to take that momentum into how we get ready,” said Vidovic. “We are going to put all our efforts forth and focus on ourselves.”
Marist is providing a fan bus to the games.
