Tonight is Senior Night for CSCS Volleyball, and as the Lady Lions prepare to close out their regular season, we are celebrating six remarkable seniors who have helped shape this program through their dedication, perseverance, and love for their teammates.
Throughout the season, our Lady Lions have faced challenges, celebrated victories, and continued growing together. From exciting moments on the court to the friendships built along the way, this season has been about more than wins and losses. It has been about developing character, learning to lead, and competing with purpose.
Tonight, we have the privilege of honoring six seniors whose impact extends far beyond the volleyball court.
Honoring Our 2026 Seniors
Capri Simpson | #5
For Capri, one of the greatest gifts of playing volleyball at CSCS has been sharing the sport she loves with some of her closest friends. Those relationships have made her volleyball experience especially meaningful.
Capri is grateful for her parents, Mike and Mara Simpson, who have celebrated her victories, encouraged her through difficult moments, and spent countless hours helping her improve in the gym. Their constant presence and support have meant the world to her.
Favorite Scripture: 1 John 4:4 “You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.”

Kennedy’s volleyball journey has taught her the importance of perseverance, personal growth, and being a great teammate. She is especially grateful for the opportunity to challenge herself through competition while developing both on and off the court.
Kennedy recognizes her parents, Joe and Elizabeth Kinard, for their love and support throughout her life. Their encouragement has been an important part of her journey.
Favorite Scripture: Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD”

Jayne will carry much more than volleyball memories into her next chapter. Through her time with the Lady Lions, she has developed lifelong lessons in discipline, humility, and leadership while building meaningful friendships with her teammates.
She thanks her parents, Jack and Nicole Glojek, for consistently showing up, encouraging her, and challenging her to give her very best. Their example has helped shape the person and teammate she strives to be.

Evey thanks her parents, Scott and Cathie Homan, for their unwavering support. From attending every game to traveling to out-of-state tournaments, their commitment has been a constant source of encouragement throughout her volleyball career.
Favorite Scripture: 1 Peter 5:7 “Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.”
Lily Hergenreter | #11

Lily is especially grateful for the friendships, laughter, and unforgettable memories she has shared with her teammates.
She also recognizes the sacrifices of her parents, Jen and Gabe Hergenreter. From late-night jersey washing and packed lunches to countless miles traveled and the financial sacrifices that made her opportunities possible, their love and encouragement have helped shape her journey and strengthen her faith.
Favorite Scripture: Psalm 16:11 “You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.”

She is thankful for the coaches who have invested their time and energy into helping her improve as a player and person.
Breckyn also thanks her parents, Ryan and Barb Gooden, for providing opportunities to pursue the sport she loves, encouraging her through challenges, and consistently showing up to support her.

More Than a Game
As we celebrate these six seniors tonight, one theme stands out in each of their reflections: gratitude.
Gratitude for parents who sacrificed, coaches who invested, teammates who became friends, and a sport that helped shape who they are becoming.
That is what makes CSCS Athletics special. We want our student-athletes to leave our programs not only as better competitors, but as stronger leaders, faithful followers of Christ, and young people prepared for whatever God has ahead of them.
To Capri, Kennedy, Jayne, Evey, Lily, and Breckyn, thank you for the commitment, heart, and leadership you have brought to Lady Lions Volleyball. Your contributions to this program will be remembered, and we are excited to see where God leads each of you next.
To our coaches and families, thank you for the countless hours, sacrifices, and encouragement that have made this season possible.
Lions community, join us tonight as we celebrate our seniors and cheer on the Lady Lions as they finish their regular season!
