Weed volleyball coach Steve Neel’s pick for this week’s Pepsi of Mt. Shasta Lady Cougar Player of the Week…”The team for all their hard work and commitment to being outstanding teammates.”

To coach Neel’s comments, I’d like to add a couple of things. First, the Lady Cougars were easily the most improved team in Siskiyou County this season, going 9-12-1, after winning only two matches all of last season, and none the season before that. They also notched three wins in Shasta Cascade League play this season. Weed’s grand total of SCL wins in the prior seven seasons was two. And , of course, they pulled off the biggest SCL volleyball upset of the year, when they knocked off Mt. Shasta, 3-2, denying the Lady Bears a share of the league title. With only one senior on this year’s squad, the future looks very bright for the Lady Cougars.

Congratulations Lady Cougars. Enjoy your Cube of Pepsi.

Thanks, Pepsi of Mt. Shasta!
