Senior volleyball captain Kristin Frank is ready to lead the team to states. She sat down with The Advocate to answer some questions about the ongoing season.  

Owen Paiva: What is your personal goal for the season?

Kristin Frank: My personal goal for this season is to help lead my team to states along with the other three captains. I also strive to improve the number of assists I get every game. By trying to improve my stats every game, this could help me make All-SCC this year.

OP: What has been your favorite memory of volleyball?

KF: My favorite memory of volleyball so far has to the game against Sacred Heart Academy. Our team as a whole played our best. Throughout the three matches, we communicated nonstop and played our absolute hardest. That game, we successfully won in three matches.

OP: What do you bring to the team, both as a player and a captain?

KF: Being captain, I like to push my teammates to play their best every single match. Also, I think I do a good job picking up my teammates when they are getting down on themselves because of a bad pass or a missed serve. It is extremely important for the captains to help out the rest of the team especially when they lose their confidence on the court.

OP: How have you improved during your four years on the Law volleyball team?

KF: During my four years on the volleyball team, I have grown as a player in both my mentality and physical strength. As a freshman, I would quickly lose my self- confidence if I made an error out on the court. Now, I know how important it is to simply realize what I did wrong and what I should do so I do not make the same mistake next time. As for improving my actual skills, I did a lot of camps and sessions over the spring and summer of my sophomore and junior years so I could evolve into the best player I could become.

OP: What are you most excited about this year?

KF: I am most excited for my senior night. Although it will be difficult to realize this is one of my very last home games as a Law volleyball player, it is exciting for us seniors to be rewarded for our four years of hard work and dedication. Senior Night is always an exciting game for the team because we do so much to prepare for it. It will also be difficult to leave my coach, Ms. Loch. She has been there for me all four years and is the main reason why I was able to improve this much over the years of being apart of the team.
