For the Mid-Prairie volleyball team the season opens on Monday. It’s the annual trip to the Keota tournament.

Last year the Golden Hawks fared well at Keota, as they knocked off both English Valleys and Belle Plaine before falling to Highland. With several players returning from last year’s 14-17 team, Mid-Prairie is looking to do even better this season.

This year’s squad is led by third year starter, senior Emily Cayton, plus they will get a big boost in the return of center Clarice Murphy, a junior.

Following the Keota tournament the Golden Hawks will host Wilton on September 3rd.
