Bumping the ball, again and again without error
Dreaming of becoming a great volleyball player
A young girl aspires to play volleyball with her all
Setting eyes on her future, she answers the call
Almost daily it seems, she practices again in the yard
Bumping a volleyball back up on the roof, isn’t so hard
This determined and skilled lady moves up in her years
Realizing always, playing volleyball brings her little fear
As she enters middle school, she plays on her first team
Enjoying the competition, making her face always beam
Bumping the ball, again and again without error
Dreaming of becoming a great volleyball player
Her soft hands and calmness, make her a skilled setter
Roaming the back row, her ball-hawking is even better
With a purpose, she enters high school and plays a key role
Setting up her teammates with accurate precision—Whoa!
Her teammates rally around her confident leadership
Wearing #9, her unruffled play leads and rarely slips
Her team charts a perfect season and a trip to State
Falling just a bit short, second place will be their fate
Bumping the ball, again and again without error
Dreaming of becoming a great volleyball player
The team moves forward with her unselfish play
Becoming a volleyball dynasty, even to this day
A relaxed, confident smile masks her intense competitiveness
Elevating her game, encouraging her team to lofty greatness
Now her team looks more determined, than ever before
Bringing its school and town, a perfect season of scores
Returning to State, the setter and her mates are up to the task
Capturing the school’s very first volleyball State crown, at last
Bumping the ball, again and again without error
Dreaming of becoming a great volleyball player
The Wildcats secure two more trips to State, to complete her career
Continuing a rich and winning volleyball tradition, without any tears
As her high school career begins its closing, thrilling year
Tasting defeat so very few times, makes opponents fear
“Wow, she hasn’t graduated yet!”—An opposing coach winks
Playing in these final State matches, her skills remain in sync
An incredible volleyball player, will no longer pass and roam
Remembering those times of practicing, in the yard at home
Bumping the ball, again and again without error
Dreaming of becoming a great volleyball player
