The inaugural season of the Longmeadow High School volleyball team was a season of hard work and fun. The Lancers were able to assemble Junior Varsity and Varsity teams. Coach Rita Hawker was the coach. As a first-year, inexperienced, team the Lancers were not expecting many victories. However, being founded on hard work and fun, the varsity team achieved a record of 5 wins and 8 losses. The team celebrated their successful first season with a banquet, a tradition that continues today. The team had an outstanding year, focusing on the basics to lay a foundation for the future. The Junior Varsity won all of their games except one.
