The team lost 3 key starters from a New England quarterfinal team, 2 of which were New England All-Stars and returned only 4 players, 1 of which was a returning starter. Needless to say this was a new team with many holes to fill. As a result, the program welcomed 9 new players to varsity, which included an unprecedented 3 freshman and 2 players who were brand new to the sport. The lady Pelicans hit the hardwood with playdays at Glastonbury High and at home, which showed the lack of experience but great potential. The season was kicked off the season with a loss against an upstart NMH team and eventual N.E. champion Andover. Not feeling down but rather optimistic the team had a good solid win versus class B defending champ Miss Porter’s. It was a great step forward for such a young and inexperienced team as the chemistry started to officially gel. The motto for the season was “one step at a time” and the team did just that throughout the season, especially in practice. Unfortunately, much of the great practices didn’t carry over into the matches and the losses started to pile up. Perhaps the “best” loss of the season came against Exeter in which starting setter Erin Currey was down with an injury and freshman Alison Yeh was called upon to set, having never done so in a varsity match. The Pelicans rallied around the young player and played a very competitive match which could have gone either way in the end, unfortunately LC dropped the 5 set 15-13, but took a great step forward as a team. The last victory was a memorable one as well. Again on the road, this time facing a solid Berkshire team. The athleticism of the young Loomis team shined that day as senior backup middle hitter Michelle Irukera was asked to start and she proved to be the best player on the court recording team high kills and blocks. The Pelicans capitalized on her performance and earned a 3-2 victory marking a special moment for each player. The strongest aspect of the 2011 team was their spirit and camaraderie. Even though there were so many new and young faces, everyone came together early on, which is a testament to the captains and all their hardwork during the off season. Every player felt supported and thus individually made huge improvements. The future is bright for LCVB and the seniors leave behind a positive legacy to follow. I especially thank Erin Currey, Ally Hopson, Michelle Irukera and Gabby Angelini for their dedication and passion towards LCVB and their teammates. LCVB would also like to thank all the parents, family, friends and entire athletic department for their support throughout this season. Most Improved Player: Michelle Irukera Michelle was new to LCVB last year as a new junior and although she didn’t make varsity, she earned a spot on JV because of her athleticism and attitude. This year she began preseason competing for the deepest position (middle/right side hitter) on varsity. At the end of preseason the coaches gave Michelle the choice to stay on varsity as the 4th middle hitter or to take her talents to another sport. She chose to stay with the team and with no promises and no special treatment, began to work towards improvement. She got her first taste of varsity competition in the Miss Porter’s match, which turned out to be the spark for Michelle’s metamorphosis. She loved the experience that it further drove her in practice and during the second half of the season she proved herself very well with her technique; so well that she earned an opportunity to start in the Taft match. Unfortunately, that was the first cancelled volleyball match in LC history (the famous Halloween snowstorm) and Michelle had to wait an entire week before she was to start her first varsity match. She seized the moment at Berkshire and proved to be not only deserving to be on the court, but was the best player on the floor that day. She was asked to do everything include serve and play back row defense and truly shined by leading the team in kills and blocks. Michelle continued her strong presence on the floor in the remaining matches and helped make the team much more competitive. I am so glad Michelle chose to stay; she proved many people wrong including me. Coaches Award: GaBBy Angelini, Ally Hopson and Erin Currey Tri-captains Gabby Angelini, Ally Hopson and Erin Currey share the honors for this year’s coaches award. These 3 senior captains were instrumental in leading this team in spirit and chemistry. Together they worked hard in the off-season in preparation for the fall season and together they kept spirits high during preseason. During the season, when the losses started to mount, the true colors of these three fine young ladies emerged. They stayed focused at practice, were supportive of their teammates and sacrificed their own personal goals for the betterment of the program. This exceptional trio was part of some very special Loomis volleyball teams and they leave behind a wonderful legacy for others to follow. Thank you ladies for your time and efforts.

This co-ed team eventually split into girls and boys varsity programs in the mid -90's with both teams having consistent success in their respective leagues. The Pelican's won the New England Prep School Championship Tournament in 1994 and 1996, finished second in 1999, 2002, and 2003 and third in 2001. 2010 STATISTICS Overall Record: 8-8 Goals – A. Wright 53, W. Bogle 35, J. Bosee 14 Assists – A. Wright 24, L. Thies 19, J. Hashmi14 Steals – A.Wright 53, J. Bosee 37, S. Broda 28 2011 SEASON Coming off of a 2010 campaign that ended with a 6-10 record, the Pelicans had reason to be optimistic for a strong 2011 season. Key returning starters from last year’s team, senior Captains Addison Wright and Sam Broda along with returning letter winners Captain Will Bogle, Captain Jamil Hashmi, senior Jake Bosee and junior goalie Ryan Shelby formed the core of the varsity unit. In an early season scrimmage against Williston the team played quite well, and a closely contested loss to Andover set the stage for season full of drama and good competition. One of the biggest wins this fall was an upset of defending New England Champions Deerfield at Hedges Pool in mid-September, but numerous one goal games were played throughout the season. Tough losses to Suffield and Brunswick fueled the tank for an exciting win against Staples High, and another victory in a rematch with Suffield. The unexpected October snowstorm forced contests with Hotchkiss and Choate to be cancelled, but the Pelicans were invited to the post-season tournament for the first time in three years following a strong victory over Williston in the final regular season game of the season. The 9-7 loss to Suffield in the quarterfinal tournament game was heartbreaking as Loomis held a 7-4 lead midway through the 3rd quarter, but the overall success and competitiveness of the program during the season has certainly infused the team with a healthy dose of confidence and commitment going forward. A huge thanks to all the seniors who gave so much of themselves to the program over the years, now it’s up to juniors Ryan Shelby, Tyler Rehor, Phil DeLaMater, Doug Gorman and Jamie Neikrie to see if they can sustain the momentum and carry the program even further.

This year, the schoolE theme was fi rst alluded to in our puzzling all-school read, The Little Prince. During the fi rst weeks of school, the administration has presented the theme in a narrow sense, raising eyebrows. Is it really that effective to have the junior class do yoga in the quad? Are the talks on de-stressing stressful? Is mindfulness limited to stress relief? Given the emphasis on alleviating the stress we cannot eliminate, it is too easy to dismiss the mantra rather than seriously investing in it.
