"The benefits of playing at a high-profile high school like Lake Travis is the competition," said Wheeler. I think playing at Lake Travis will definitely prepare me for college volleyball because of the mental toughness required to play the sport, especially...with such a competitive atmosphere."

"When I heard the news that UIL released, I was incredibly relieved and excited that we would still get to have a volleyball season," said Drange.
