Coach Rachel Chambers reported that donations from the crowd brought Williston varsity volleyball to a little over 50% of their total goal of $1,000.

This week, the team will be putting donation buckets will also be placed in each dorm. The “Pink Buckets” will be tallied to see whether girls dorms or boys dorms raise the most.
