Heading into the weekend, the Kusler Klinic Volleyball Club teams were part of massive tournaments seeing over 100 teams in each separate tournament. By the end, both were in the top eight, and the 17U squad was second with three All-Americans over the weekend.

Pierre was represented well on each of the two teams, 16U and 17U. Aleise Christopherson, Reese Terwilliger and Lainey Reinke played on the 16U team while it was Remi Price, Ayvrie Kaiser, Makenna Schlekeway and Lily Sanchez on the 17Us. Christopherson was named as an All-American with her performance on the 16Us while both Ayvrie Kaiser and Lily Sanchez were named to the 17U All-American teams.
