Second team all-league selection Lauren Heinz of Andover has a big season ahead of her, and ready to add on to her accolades from last year. Heinz even broke the school record for most assists.
“This season the main goal I have for the team is to play cohesively and for each other,” Heinz said. “It would be awesome to finish off my high school career with another state appreciable and I believe this team has the talent and the heart to accomplish that.”
Heading into her final season at Andover, Heinz is still thankful for what brought her to the game of volleyball to begin with. Thanks to fate over ten years ago, Heinz is now one of the top players in AVCTL Division II.
“I started playing volleyball in first grade at the YMCA,” Heinz said. “I started playing because my family attended a volleyball game of a family friend and I thought it looked like so much fun.”
Heinz has big plans for after graduation and for the years to come.
“After high school I plan to study pre-law and major in political science or criminal justice,” Heinz said. “After that I want to attend graduate school and earn a law degree.”
