Senior Night Volleyball

By Leah Smith


This Wednesday, Girls Varsity Volleyball will be hosting senior night with a home game against Bridgeman. The Varsity Volleyball team has had a very successful start to the season with an impressive record of 7-2. With one more win, they will have won more games so far this season than in the past two years combined. 


Our first senior spotlight is on Captain Elsie Copp, the starting outside hitter. Elsie is an amazing leader. She plays a huge role in hyping up the team. Elsie keeps the energy high, especially during more challenging games. She has been on varsity for two years at Hackett after moving from California the summer before her junior year. At that time, Esie made the switch from outdoor beach volleyball to indoor volleyball. In the off-season, she played on a national-level club volleyball team with USA Michigan.


Ella Slattery is a senior that helps the team by playing many roles. She has been on varsity for two years. She moved to Michigan at the end of her sophomore year from Colorado, but has also lived in Iowa, Chicago, and Amsterdam. Ella is a very fun teammate to play with as she always stays calm and is versatile on the court, playing her best wherever the team needs her.


Julia Warner is a right side hitter who has been a member of the varsity team for three consecutive years. Julia also plays club volleyball for USA Michigan. Last year, playing on an 18U team as a 16 year old. Julia is an energetic and motivated player and helps keep team spirit up at practice and in games.


Last but certainly not least, Hannah Hollman has been a defensive specialist in the back row on varsity for the past two years. Hannah is a hard worker as well as an easy and fun person to play in the back row with. She put in a lot of effort to earn the playing time she has been receiving.

The team has three games this week. The first is away at Schoolcraft on Tuesday. The second is senior night v.s. Bridgeman on Wednesday, and the third is at home on Thursday vs. Colon. Show up and support your Irish volleyball players!
