Volleyball: Wood named to all-state team

“I’m proud of her,” Dragon coach Mike Paul said. “It was well-deserved.”

Wood was the only public school player on the Class AA ballot.

She broke four school records this year, including setting the single-season kills record with 509 as Jefferson went 28-16 this past season.

“Her stats spoke for themselves,” Paul said.

The coach called the all-state accolade “quite an honor” for Wood. He also said the recognition is big for the program.

“It definitely puts a feather in our cap, the fact that we’re getting some state-wide notoriety,” he said.
