Senior plans to study pre-medicine in the South next year. Leads the team in all statistical categories.
Erika Ingels is a senior at Ladue Horton Watkins High School, and already she knows what she wants to do career wise. She wants to be a Forensic Pathologist, and hopes to ply that trade in the Dallas Police Department or something like that someday. Ingels is the senior star and captain of the vastly-improved 13-4 Ladue volleyball team. She leads the team in all statistical categories including kills, (90), assists (123) and aces (33). Her coach, Roberta McCaffery has her kind of set up like an extra coach on the court. Ingels relishes that leadership roll. “I have played so long, I feel like I really have something to offer the team,” she said. Here’s a sit-down Q & A with this volleyball standout. Patch.com: What is the difference …

Alyssa Jensen & Natalie Gower and the rest nearing the peak of their game.
The St. Joe volleyball team seems to be playing with a sense of urgency this season. There definitely seems to be an extra pep in their step. They take the court like ferocious lions. The Angels have rung up a 19-3 record, losing only to high-flying Lafayette (the season opener) and a couple of national out-of-town teams. Monday afternoon, they made quick work of Visitation Academy, winning in two sets, 25-17 and 25-10. Look for more game photos on the Ladue-Frontenac Facebook Page. The Angels parlay a lot of team work, especially up front with 6-foot-3 Natalie Gower and 5-foot-11 Alyssa Jensen dominating the net, along with Morgan Gresham and Grace Carter. The Angels like to score in spurts of 3 and 4 point runs. Their coach Karen Davis…

Angels win two-set match is less than 40 minutes.
They used to say Cardinals Hall of fame pitcher Bob Gibson worked so fast for the Cardinals, it was if he was double parked outside the stadium. If that was the case, then the Incarnate Word Academy team bus must have been parked in the fire lane Tuesday at St. Joseph’s Academy. They weren’t there long enough to get a ticket from the Frontenac police. The Angels dispatched their arch rivals with the greatest of ease in less than 40 minutes, winning a two-set match, 25-10 and 25-12. The front line of Natalie Gower, Lauren Gresham, Alyssa Jensen and Grace Carter gave great efforts from beginning to end. Last week, the Angels' schedule was rudely interrupted, losing a two-set match to mighty Lafayette to open the long season. This victory was…

Emily Kellerhals, the Libero digs in for the Saints.
The role of the Libero on a volleyball team is unique. The Libero roams the backline primarily, digging out a lot of low shots and setting up the forwards and centers. Senior captain Emily Kellerhals plays that role for Villa Duchesne with great distinction. Kellerhals and her teammates played a season-opening spirited match, defeating visiting MICDS 25-17 and 25-22 to open play in the 2012 season Thursday night. Kellerhals was picking up floor burns, scrambling all over the home court at Villa. She sparked her teammates to several comebacks. The second set was tied nine times before the Saints pulled away for the game winner. “I have no idea how many saves I made out there. I just play to play. I was on the floor a lot I do know,” said …

Tall, talented senior group will lead the way in 2012.
Two years ago, the St. Joe Angels won the state volleyball tournament. They didn’t win it last year. By simple deduction, the battle cry this fall is get to the finals in November, and win it all. The Angels have a talented upper tier of juniors and seniors. This year’s squad is comprised of five seniors, four juniors and three sophomores. Alyssa Jensen, called a “fantastic setter” by her assistant coach Katie Richardson is all revved up to go. She’s already signed a letter of intent to play for Cal-Berkeley next year. “She’s an amazing setter, she’s focused on the season ahead,” said Richardson. Jensen agrees. “I’m excited about this season. Our real goal is to get to that state tournament again. We’ve been working extremely hard to get …

Nicole- Megan Boken was actually finished with college, Aniya Cook was on her way, Ignorant ass. I 100% agree, "To hell with race", but that only seems to apply when less that 13% (African Americans) of our population are committing more murders by number than 65% (whites). Their is obviously a problem in the African American community with committing homicides. Does "To hell with race" also …   more ›
