Lady Huskies team makes historic run

The Bishop Carroll Lady Huskies volleyball team ended their 2009 campaign with an overall 14-8 record, 11-5 in the Laurel Highlands Athletic Conference.

"I'm so proud of our team and all the girls have accomplished this season," said Coach Joe Skura. "These girls were committed and they worked hard to raise the bar for this program. They have certainly represented our school and our program with great class."
