Rich High Sports 1 A Volleyball Champions by Deseret News Staff Writer



It was a five-set battle, but when the final ball bounced, Rich had captured the 1A state volleyball title Saturday night at the Sevier Valley Center in Richfield. 

“I think that’s the hardest game we’ve ever played in our entire lives,” said Wendy Lamborn, head coach of the Rich Lady Rebels.

“Earlier in the season we played a team that was a big-time rival of ours, and we got down two games to none,” Lamborn said. “I think that game turned it around for us. To know that it doesn’t matter, you can come back and win.”

Throughout the year, Rich’s girls were focused on what they called, “the process.”

“The process was to get all the way to state,” said junior Aeva Ellsworth. “That means coming together as a team, working through all our problems and trusting each other.”

In the end, Ellsworth said the process paid off.
