After a tremendous season, some of the Libby Lady Logger volleyball players were placed on the District 7B All State Teams, an honor that comes once a year for athletes.

Brooklyn Rainer, a junior, and Mehki Sykes, a sophomore, were selected by the conference based on their skill and presence on the court. Rainer, Sykes and Jayden Winslow, a sophomore, were selected for the First Team All Conference and Emma Gruber, a sophomore, was selected for the Second Team All Conference.

“They were picked based on how the other team feels when they come on the court,” Cindy Ostrem-Johnston said. “They have quite a presence, I’m very proud of them.”

Ostrem-Johnston said that while their season flew by, she’s excited to work with those players next year. 

Four of the players were placed on the team, outnumbering all other teams in their district besides Eureka, who had one in the First Team All Conference and three in the Second Team All Conference.
