HARLETON — For the first time in the history of Harleton ISD, volleyball is officially a sport for high schoolers. The Lady Wildcats kicked it off with a camp for incoming ninth to 12th graders.

Out of all the Harrison and Marion County schools, Harleton was the only one with no volleyball program. Last year, they added Junior High volleyball and due to it’s success, the high school was green lit for a program.

New coach Megan Roberts invited Gilmer’s head volleyball coach Lacy Dennis to spearhead the camp.

This camp is the start of the inaugural season for the Lady Cats future volleyball campaigns. They will officially be a UIL sport next season with the new realignment on the horizon.
