That’s a wrap for the 2023-2024 Texas City High School Volleyball Camp for 7th-12th graders. A big thank you to Amanda Ripple and Isabella Waggoner for coaching the camp! Coach Vanderford said, “The athletes are walking away with more knowledge and skills thanks to y’all. We cannot wait for the 2023-2024 season to start and watch our girls grow.”
