When the 2019 UIL volleyball season began, Lady Blues volleyball coach Marci Faulk stated that the team has a goal of winning 30 games. That was the expectation set among the 11 junior and four senior squad. Thirty wins was the baseline set for a successful season.
“Anything less than a 30-win season is a failure to the girls on this team,” she said. The Lady Blues have won 30 matches every year in Faulk’s tenure at Graham. Little did Faulk or her team know just what they could achieve.
The Graham Steers football team improved to 4-4 (2-1 district) on Friday when the team defeated Krum 42-7. Hunter Lanham threw for three touchdowns and Tre Alveraz ran for his first varsity touchdown in the win. The Steers can clinch a spot in the post season with a win over Aubrey on Nov. 1.
