Riverside earns first championship as Stingers

The jr. girls volleyball team at Riverside recently won the AA championship to become the first team to win a championship under the new Stingers moniker.

Riverside defeated Tecumseh Vista in a 3-2 comeback victory. Mollie Lepore was a catalyst in the 4th set with her net presence. She also ended the contest with five straight aces.

“I am so proud of the improvement in the approach and confidence of these girls." said head coach Jason Edgington. "They have learned so much about the game and have grown together as a unit. Especially grade 9 Elena Susa. She has played so many tremendous roles for us, from setter to middle, to right-side, wherever she was needed, tremendously.”

The Stingers are now on to Great Lakes in Sarnia Friday for the SWOSSA championship.
