MCSM v. BHS: Boys Varsity Vollyball Final

By Fariha T. Rahman

           Sports are an integral part of every high school experience, whether it is being involved as a player or being a spectator. At Manhattan Center, the athletic groups never fail to display incredible skills while electrifying an avid crowd.

 

           The MCSM Boys Volleyball team is a prime example of student athleticism, with robust players who have put in hours of practice to improve their performance. For their final game, I wanted to capture some moments to show how far they’ve come athletically— and more importantly, as a team.

            This game was amazing overall, as the MCSM team won 2-0. The secret to this success was high team morale and motivation, as well as immense enthusiasm from the Manhattan Center crowd. One thing is certain: if you have not yet gone to an MCSM sports event, make sure to do so next season!
