The Whitewater Volleyball Program kicked off the 2022 season with a scrimmage at Union Grove (Varsity) and Elkhorn (JV1 and JV2)! The energy the Whippets brought was felt by all who attended, with both JV teams showing great improvement from start to finish! The coaches were proud of the way the athletes worked hard on the court and the positivity they brought to their teammates.
The Varsity squad showed huge improvement from last year in their ability to run a faster offense and defense. The coaching staff is excited for what the season holds! Next up is a Varsity Quadrangular at home on Tuesday, August 23rd beginning at 5:00 p.m. The JV1 team will head to East Troy for an afternoon tournament on August 24th. Rounding out the week of competition, the Varsity squad will head over to UWW for a Friday/Saturday tournament August 26 and 27.
To end a great first week of practice and competition, the entire volleyball family celebrated with a program lock-in at the High School. This included dancing, movie watching, snacks, games, and team bonding. What a great way to celebrate our first week of building our team culture for the season! Special thanks to Athletic Director, Mr. Crandall, and WHS Principal Mr. Mansky for affording us this opportunity.
Our theme this year is “All or Nothing…Contribute to the Culture.” We have many special events planned and hope to see you at our matches this season!

The Whippet Boys’ and Girls’ Cross Country Teams are once again selling water softener salt as the program’s fundraiser! This is a wildly popular event that you are missing out on if you haven’t tried it yet. Last year we delivered over 1,000 bags of salt in just over 2 hours!
It’s super simple and we do all the work! Purchase a minimum of 2 bags of your choice and we will deliver them to your house on the morning of September 10th. We can place them outside, in your garage, or even in your basement at your request. We will deliver even if you aren’t home on that date. A special thanks to Steve Johnson from Winchester True Value for partnering with us to make this possible!
Check out the flyer below and email Coach Carstens (ccarstens@wwusd.org) if you have any questions or would like to make a purchase. You can also purchase from a member of the CC team or pick up a flyer from Winchester True Value. We look forward to hearing from you!
