Lady Wolves headed to state

Prior to last week's 4A West Regional Tournament in Green River, Lady Wolves head volleyball coach Rikki Shantz said she not only wanted her seniors to experience the state tournament for the first time, she also wanted the younger members of the team to soak in the atmosphere.

After a thrilling weekend of volleyball that ended with a fourth-place finish at the regional tournament, the team earned a birth in this week's 4A state tournament at the Casper Events Center.

"I'm still on cloud nine and I think the girls are too," Shantz said. "It's going to be awesome."
