🥈 GJNC Blue Bracket Runner-Up! 🥈
What a way to finish the season for Phoenix 16 Red!
This weekend, the Firebirds capped off an incredible year by finishing 2nd Overall in the GJNC Blue Bracket, adding one more impressive result to a season full of growth, resilience, and success.
Season Highlights:
🥈 GJNC Blue Bracket Runner-Up
🥈 Windy City Challenge Runner-Up
🏅 5th Overall – CanAm Classic (16 Premier)
🏅 6th Overall – Nike Open (16 Open)
🥉 3rd Overall – Cincinnati Grand Prix
🥉 3rd Place Copper – MEQ (16 USA)
The results speak for themselves, but what made this team special wasn’t just where they finished. It was the way they grew together throughout the season. Through long tournament weekends, tough matches, injuries, setbacks, and successes, this group stayed committed to each other and continued to improve as one unit.
Volleyball seasons eventually come to an end, but the friendships, memories, and bonds created along the way will last far beyond the final point. We couldn’t be prouder of the way these athletes represented Phoenix all season long.
Thank you, 16 Red, for an unforgettable season. ❤️🖤🐦🔥
