ST. VINCENT DE PAUL GIRLS VARSITY VOLLEYBALL

At a recent tournament in Arcata, an Arcata player suffered a serious knee injury that required ambulance assistance. Once the player was safely taken for care, the St. Vincent volleyball team demonstrated remarkable compassion and leadership—asking to lead both teams in a prayer circle for her healing and recovery.

In a moment that transcended competition, athletes from both schools joined together in unity and care before continuing the match.

St. Vincent’s gesture reflects the heart of high school athletics—empathy, respect, and community. We commend their players and coaches for showing what true sportsmanship looks like.
