Two days of practices for fall sports in the books, and Pella Christian volleyball head coach, Cindy Nikkel, is pleased with the progress she is seeing from her team so far. Nikkel says that the girls are all healthy, something that plagued the team early on last year when they got off to a 2 – 11 start. The Eagles’ coach says that though it was their first day of practice on Monday, they still got a lot done. After the 2 – 11 start to the 2013 season, the Eagles got hot and rattled off eight straight wins and won 16 of their next 19 matches. They’ll begin play in 2014 on Monday, August 25 at home versus Marshalltown.
