Head Volleyball Coach Trish Siedlik announced Wednesday that Alysha
Ford from Papillion LaVista South High School has signed on with the
Flames program. Ford was a three year varsity letter winner for the
volleyball program coached by Gwen Egbert. Alysha was elected captain her
senior year. She also is a member of the tennis team for the Titans.
"Alysha is coming from one of the toughest and technically sound programs
in the state. She has learned both the physical and mental demands of
a top program. We felt that Alysha was a great fit with her size
standing at about 5'11" to suit our needs in the front row," commented
Siedlik. Alysha is a member of the Premier Volleyball Club and will join
fellow club members Amanda Cook (Bellevue East) and Rachel Muller
(Millard North) for the class of 2006. Ford has been on the honor roll for
the last three years and will be entering the nursing program next fall.
The Flames finished last year 35-8 and will set their sights on the

Head Volleyball Coach Kristen Lebeda has announced that Rachel Nisi, Premier 18 Gold, of Omaha, Neb. has signed a letter-of-intent to join the Midland Volleyball Program. Nisi, a three year starter for Daniel J. Gross High School, was a key contributor on the Cougar’s Class B State Championship Team last fall.
Lebeda, in her 2nd year as the Warriors Head Coach, is excited about the winning tradition as well as talents and abilities that Nisi brings to Midland.
“Rachel is a smart yet powerful hitter,” Lebeda commented. “She has shown tremendous growth over the last two years and we are excited by how she will continue to develop at Midland.”
Along with her experiences at Omaha Gross, Nisi has played in other high level competition among top Junior Olympic Volleyball teams. Among her experiences are trips to the Junior Olympic National Championships in 2002 and 2004.
Lebeda is excited about how these experiences have developed and equipped Nisi to play at the collegiate level.
Lebeda said, “Even in pressure situations, Rachel knows how to put the ball away. She is an aggressive player and brings a lot of enthusiasm to the court. I think Rachel will be a great addition to our program.”
Nisi plans to major in Biology at Midland. She is Midland’s second volleyball recruit to sign a letter-of-intent.
Congrats Rachel!!

PREMIER PLAYERS: It was a pleasure to work with the groups that came in on Saturday's extra sessions.

I also wish to thank the Premier Coaches that helped on Saturday making it a success.

Along with her experiences at Omaha Gross, Nisi has played in other high level competition among top Junior Olympic Volleyball teams. Among her experiences are trips to the Junior Olympic National Championships in 2002 and 2004.
Lebeda is excited about how these experiences have developed and equipped Nisi to play at the collegiate level.

Nisi plans to major in Biology at Midland. She is Midland’s second volleyball recruit to sign a letter-of-intent.

Ok Pizza fans, the final results have
been calculated. And the big winner is The Omaha Food Pantry of course.
It was a very generous offering from the best volleyball club in the region.
A grand total of 649 items were collected and will be delivered to the food pantry
on Monday. In the contest for the pizza party by the team with the most contributions,
the teams with 50 or more items were:
17 Gold 50 items
13 Black 52 items
13 Gold 56 items
16 Black 91 items
15 Gold 105 items
16 Gold 122 items
and the Pizza Party Dream Team is...
12 BLACK 135 items
Again thanks to everyone for the effort and showing why Premier Volleyball is #1. Now I must go find a pair of running shoes. I will make every effort to run the laps each team is responsible for during their practice sessions.
Dave Chalupa (aka Forest Gump)
The 16 Gold team would like to challenge all other Premier teams to a food drive contest. We as a club have plenty to be thankful for and can show our appreciation by collecting all the non-perishable goods we can for the local food pantry.
Need a little motivation?
Premier volleyball will provide a "pizza party" to the team that gathers the most total items. We will be collecting all items during this weekends practices, Dec 3rd & 4th.
Looking for a little more motivation?
For every item donated, Coach Chalupa of the 16 Gold will run one lap around the CSM jogging track. “I especially challenge all the past and current players that I have had the privilege of working with. I was able to make you run, now it’s your turn.”
Give it your best shot. Go ahead, what have you got to lose. I dare you!
November 30, 2005

ATTENTION CLASS OF 2005 ATTENDING COLLEGE
Great Plains member Kevin Wills has participated in volleyball for many years.
He has played, coached, & officiated for so many years in the region that we’ve lost count.
Now he wants to "give back" to someone else. This year he’s taken all of the money he made from
officiating at regional tournaments and has created a scholarship for a Great Plains member that
is a graduating senior. This Great Plains player must be planning to attend college, but does not
have to play volleyball while in college. The scholarship is worth $500.
Applications are due to the region office by August 1, 2005.
The winner will be announced and notified on September 1, 2005.
