Parents' Day and Mountain Day

What a great weekend to be a part of the Berry family!  Mountain Day is a homecoming tradition that celebrated its 98th year this year, and it is truly a unique Berry experience.  Then, when you add three home volleyball victories and recognition of our parents on Parents' Day, and you really could not ask for a better weekend!

Friday started off with our opportunity to pay Centre back for our lone conference loss so far this year.  Our team came mentally and physically prepared as we finished off our conference opponent in three sets.  However, there was no time to celebrate as our match versus perennial regional contender Maryville started a mere 40 minutes later.  The Maryville match turned into a thrilling five set victory that provided some incredibly long rallies for our loyal fans to enjoy.  Without a doubt, Maryville made us earn that victory, and singing the Alma Mater after the victory never felt so sweet!

Saturday brought Mountain Day festivities including the Grand March, picnic on the mountain, Parents' Day prior to our match versus Sewanee, and finally Marthapalooza on Saturday night.  The day was a resounding success with beautiful weather, another solid conference win, and great fellowship with friends and family!  Below are the pre-game video dedicated to our parents along with a few fun photos from Mountain Day!  Enjoy!
