Senior Annemarie Horn Celebrates 2500th Assist at Ursuline Game

The Scarsdale Raiders Varsity A volleyball team is fired up for an amazing season. On Thursday October 5th they played their rivals from Ursuline and swept them in three sets. Last season, the team lost to Ursuline twice in the regular season but the girls came back this year motivated and unwilling to let that happen again. The team has played a number of tough opponents this season and are pushing onwards hoping to earn a top spot in the league which will help them a lot during sectionals.

Senior Annemarie Horn, 4 year Varsity player and team Co-Captain, surpassed the 2500th assist mark and set a new school record of 2507 during the victory over Ursuline. Horn served her 163rd career aces and broke the record formerly held by Tatiana Tiangco (162). During the week of October 1st, Horn achieved double-double stat lines in digs and assists in all three games played. Her total stats for the week were as follows: 13 kills, 9 aces, 40 digs, 89 assists and 8 blocks.

The team celebrated their Co-Captain following the Ursuline match with cake and balloons. So far this season, the Varsity A team has only lost 3 games to New Rochelle, North Rockland, and Ossining. They hope to beat New Rochelle later in the season to secure a top spot in class AA post season.

Varsity A's busy schedule continues this week with games on 10/11 vs. Mt. Vernon at home, and 10/13 @ New Rochelle.
