With a record-breaking season, the Cougar Volleyball Team has cemented itself as a force to be reckoned with, bringing a bunch of school pride and bragging rights to Lassen College.

Led by Head Coach Amy Morris, who is no stranger to success in the volleyball world, the team has already surpassed previous records held by the school.

The Cougar Volleyball Team has not only made history by achieving the most wins in school history, but they have also secured the most conference wins to date.

The success of the LCC Women’s Volleyball Team has not gone unnoticed, with the entire student body and the community cheering them on.

It is incredibly fun to see their matches at home surpass previous attendances, week after week. Watching the girls play every week has been such a cool and inspiring thing.

Our little college, nestled up the hill is making waves across the state, and that is pretty darn cool.

When I’m not watching the girls, bump, set, spike (it seriously amazes me), I love to watch Coach Amy on the sidelines. You can tell she loves the girls, loves the sport, and knows what she is doing.

She has this ever-so-focused, yet confident look on her face when she coaches.

This type of excitement watching the girls compete was such a fun thing to watch unfold throughout the season.

Pearl, of course, now “just has to be” a volleyball player when she grows up, which I’ll admit is a great improvement from play-doh tester. I can only hope that if she does play collegiate volleyball, that she plays for a team that has heart and passion like our very own Cougs. Way to go girls!

Winner in the group division – Rylee, Brynlee and Emerlee Rodrigues

Large Crowd Attends Ceremonies at Devil’s Corral Last Sunday

Prominent Men Give Short Talks

Machines From Susanville and Westwood Lined Either Side Bridge

An unusually large crowd was on hand last Sunday at Devil’s Corral when the new bridge over Susan River was formally opened to the public.

A beautiful day combined with the natural beauty of the region around Devil’s Corral made the occasion one long to be remembered by those on hand.

Machines from Susanville and Westwood lined the side of the road for a great distance on either side of the bridge.

Miss Florence Sorsoli represented Susanville and Miss Letitia Dow represented Westwood at the ceremonies. A. J. Mathews, Assemblyman for this district, was Chairman of the day.

Speeches were made by B. F. Lyle, Jules Alexander, Joe Hunter, M. E. Ditmarr, C. J. Mitchell, H. G. Oates, and Bert Burroughs, who was scheduled to speak, was unable to appear as he has been called to Chico owing to the death of his brother.
