Last year, the Boys Varsity Volleyball team made history by being the first Le Jardin team to ever make an HHSAA sanctioned tournament. This year, they hope to accomplish the same feat. Making it to the HHSAA tournament is no easy accomplishment considering their season is filled with games against historic powerhouses such as Punahou, Iolani, and Kamehameha.
“We now have our own home court this year, so we will have more pride in defending it,” says head coach Jason Popejoy. The 2010 season team consists of returning starting seniors AJ Shiarella, Kalani Soeda, Taylor Gray, and John Whitty. With the team being virtually the same as the team that went to states last year, this year’s team is expecting the same result and maybe a chance to go further into the playoffs.
The boys varsity program is starting now with conditioning, and is hoping to make big strides in the Interscholastic League of Honolulu (ILH). Games start in March and the bulldogs have many home games so come and show your support.
