Eric Faught and Sam Pedelty earned both All-Conference and All-District honors.

Ryan Faught was an All-NCC team member who also competed as a member of the West Team in the Senior All Star meet held Saturday.

Three members of the Garner-Hayfield-Ventura volleyball team earned recognition from the Top of Iowa Conference - West.  Mackenzie Van Gerpen and Hannah Lau, both juniors, were named to the Second Team, while Carlie Knutson, also a junior, earned Honorable Mention recognition.

Lau dominated at the net, with 212 kills on the season and 33 blocks.  She also led the team in defense with 115 digs and had 18 ace serves.
