“It Ain’t Over Till It’s Over!” Emperors Cup Recognition

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A host of Nevada teams and programs competed at the Emperors Cup in Las Vegas, NV and the play was astounding from beginning to end. Many teams concluded their club season at this tournament while others are continuing their action in preparation for SCVA Championships and other season ending tournaments. Let's take a few moments to recognize the success that was readily evident at the Emperor's Cup!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[program_tooltip program_id='636812' first='Vegas' last='United'] Volleyball Club</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This program brought sixteen teams to compete at the Emperors Cup, but three of these teams dominated their division, made inner-city noise, utilized their tools and left no question as to why they stood on the podium receiving recognition and tournament medals. CONGRATS the VUVC!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><mark class="has-inline-color has-primary-color">"Our success at Emperors Cup is one that the girls create on their own. That atmosphere is what we look forward to because the teams get to support one another. There is no better feeling than scoring and seeing your teammates and VU family cheering you on and loving you in every moment. That environment is special and something I'm proud to say we have. We have instilled something called the three C's which is the philosophy behind our mentality when we play and they executed that beautifully. I loved watching them respond maturely in stressful situations and they deserved every bit of that podium finish" ~ <em>Janay Yulis, Director of Girls Volleyball</em></mark></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>17s Black - 17s National Division Gold Champions</strong> (Roster: Maddyson Banawel, [player_tooltip player_id='593843' first='Lauryn' last='Brenner'], [player_tooltip player_id='543141' first='Audrey' last='Jaeck'], [player_tooltip player_id='547176' first='Madison' last='Jameson'], [player_tooltip player_id='733318' first='Cori' last='Leavitt'], [player_tooltip player_id='585631' first='Mary' last='Maguinness'], Mady Shaddox, [player_tooltip player_id='547918' first='Kyrene' last='Sideco'], [player_tooltip player_id='551402' first='Isabella' last='Steiner'], [player_tooltip player_id='544654' first='Tamara' last='Unga'], [player_tooltip player_id='721962' first='Aubrey' last='Willis'])</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>16s Black - 16s National Division Gold Runner Up</strong> (Roster: Sophia Deocares, [player_tooltip player_id='528088' first='Kara' last='Dhingra'], [player_tooltip player_id='629954' first='Veanka' last='Escobedo'], Emma Hardy, [player_tooltip player_id='553120' first='Kylie' last='Kandt'], [player_tooltip player_id='575250' first='Constanze' last='Mangano'], [player_tooltip player_id='636809' first='Paydence' last='Manibusan'], [player_tooltip player_id='721981' first='Iyanna' last='Riley'], [player_tooltip player_id='530161' first='Madison' last='Scott'], [player_tooltip player_id='528259' first='Emagin' last='Stutzman'], Lyla Tuiaana)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>15s Black - 15s National Division Gold Champions</strong> (Roster: Alexandra Amado, [player_tooltip player_id='716832' first='Ivy' last='Bangert'], [player_tooltip player_id='526766' first='Victoria' last='Black'], [player_tooltip player_id='745601' first='Katelyn' last='Chicarelli'], Alexis Delzer, [player_tooltip player_id='550497' first='Kendall' last='Jaeck'], [player_tooltip player_id='563692' first='Taylor' last='Kravitz'], Addison Leavitt, Mollee Maguinness, [player_tooltip player_id='766787' first='Kimber' last='Morrow'], Lea Scott, [player_tooltip player_id='600231' first='Adison' last='Van Aken'])</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":4} --> <h4 class="wp-block-heading"><em>Coach Janay, we watched you coach the 16s team &amp; they performed extremely well.
