Episode Description

A new sport could be coming to schools across Oregon. At the beginning of this school year the Oregon School Activities Association voted to make boys volleyball an emerging sport, meaning that it has the potential to become an official sport through OSAA. But how does boys volleyball differ from the girls version of the sport? And how much interest has the game had in schools? To answer these questions and more, we’re joined by Emily Kernen, the head volleyball coach for the boys team and the freshman girls team at Bend High School. We’ll also hear from two players she coaches, senior Justin Seung and junior Will Albert.
