It’s become a tradition for the Pierre Governor volleyball team. Once the clock hits midnight on the first official practice, the Govs are on the court. This year would be no different.
Juniors and seniors would gather at the Riggs High School gym early Thursday morning for the first official practice as Pierre eyes a third consecutive state tournament berth. Tiff Stoeser, head coach of the Govs says the midnight practice is something the girls really look forward to every year…
Stoeser says this practice really leads into how the team is going to look for the year…
The Govs bring back plenty of experience. Reese Terwilliger, Aleise Christopherson, Lainey Reinke, Makayla Sherwood and Campbell Boddicker all return with lots of court time on the varsity level, especially in 2022. Terwilliger says the practice is a lot of fun…
Christopherson says its exciting…
As for getting practice rolling at midnight, Christopherson couldn’t get rest beforehand even if she wanted to…
The Governors open the season on Tuesday, August 22 in Watertown. The game will be on KCCR and on YouTube at KCCR Sports.
