Avery Lowe started playing volleyball in the third grade. Today she is a middle blocker for Maize South High School. Lowe said she really enjoys playing with this group and she loves how they support one another on and off the court.

“They always pick each other up. Volleyball is a fast sport, so you have to shake off a mistake and move on. We are a very hardworking team and supportive of each other. Communication is huge in volleyball and I feel like we do a really great job talking to each other,” said Lowe.

Her biggest moment on the court so far was making it to state her freshman year.

“We were undefeated until very late in the season. It was just a really special year,” said Lowe.

Returning to the school brought back some normalcy to life for Lowe. “I am so happy to return to a normal schedule and to volleyball. School and sports are such a huge part of who I am it felt great to be back. I am so thankful to all the coaches, teachers, administrators and staff who are making this season possible and keeping us safe and healthy,” said Lowe.

Lowe also plays varsity basketball and she’s a member of the friendship club and CACOW where she’s a volunteer.
