Columbiana – Summer break is in full swing and over 40 students ranging from kindergarteners through eighth graders dedicated some of their time to developing their volleyball skills.

The SCHS Kiddie Camp took place at Shelby County High School from June 9-11. Head varsity coach Stacy McGehee is pleased with the turnout.

“We got 42 campers this year,” McGehee said. “We were really expecting about 20 so this camp is going beyond our expectations of what it was going to be.”

The camp is an attempt to increase volleyball’s presence in the community, something McGehee believes is vital in building up a successful program.

“We’re trying to increase volleyball in the Columbiana area because we haven’t had one of these before,” McGehee said. “We’re trying to build on the success of the city league that we have a couple of teams in.”

There was a significant amount of interest in a volleyball camp around the community, leading to McGehee’s decision to hold one and do his best to shape the future of the game in Columbiana.

“We had some people in the community reach out and just ask if we would have a camp and just help work on the fundamentals and teach them about the game so maybe we could grow our city league program or just have a little bit more interest in volleyball in our community as well,” McGehee said.

While the high school players are not focused on getting better themselves during the camp, this event has still played a large role in building team chemistry and allowing them to learn how to work together.

“I really think this helps to maybe teach a little bit of leadership for the girls since they’re instructing the camp,” McGehee said. “It builds a little camaraderie with our players as they work together and have fun with each other while we’re still doing the camp as well.”

Teaching the skills to the campers allows the older players to gain some additional practice through mental reps.

“It just reinforces in their mind some of the things that we’re trying to teach them as well,” McGehee said. “What we’ve taught them or are trying to get them to do, they’re telling the campers how we’d like them to play volleyball.”

McGehee said interacting with younger athletes and building up their volleyball skills will pay off in the future as they will be prepared to join the high school roster in the years to come.

“It’s just going to create more interest and hopefully it will peak the curiosity of some of the better athletes growing up,” McGehee said. “This might be a sport that they like and want to play as they get into middle school and on up into high school.”

The main thing McGehee hopes the camp is able to accomplish, however, is strengthening the bond between the program and the community.

“I’m hoping that doing this will bring more people to the games and make them aware that we do have a volleyball program in our community that wants to share with the community,” McGehee said. “Just building up a relationship with them to where they would want to be more supportive of our program.”

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (June 11, 2025) – The U.S. Men’s National Team opened the 2025 Volleyball Nations League with a 3-0 (25-22, 25-20, 25-23) loss to Ukraine on Wednesday in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

The U.S. (0-1) will face Iran on Thursday, June 12, at 5 p.m. PDT. Watch the match live on VBTV.

Ukraine is in its first year in VNL and thus picked up its first-ever win against the young U.S. team. First-year head coach Karch Kiraly started 2024 Olympian Jeff Jendryk at middle blocker, Andrew Rowan at setter, Cooper Robinson and Jordan Ewert at outside hitter, Gabi Garcia at opposite, Merrick McHenry in the middle, and Kyle Dagostino at libero. Rowan, Robinson and McHenry were all making their VNL debuts.

From the beginning of the match, Ukraine used a strong serve to keep the U.S. off balance. That, along with several U.S. errors in set one, gave Ukraine the advantage it needed to win 25-22. Robinson led the U.S. in the set with six points on five kills and a block.

The U.S. kept with Ukraine in set two, down just one at 15-14, but Ukraine went on a 10-5 run to win 25-20. Kiraly spoke about his team’s performance in an interview with VBTV after set two.

“We’re just making not smart plays,” he said. “You got a little setter and a big middle, and we hit at the big middle instead of the little setter; pretty simple geometry there. [We have to] clean up our reception game a little, too, and keep the ball on our side of the net more. We’ve got some good hitters to set, but if we’re getting aced or passing over, that doesn’t help us at all. I can’t say I like a lot right now. but this is a part of the process. Everybody’s got to have their first VNL match, and it’s not always going to be pretty. That’s the beauty of the process. There’s lots of ugly and lots of struggle.”

The team responded in set three with better overall play, and jumped out to an early 10-5 lead. Ukraine began to crawl back, scoring four straight to make it 10-9. No one could grab the edge the rest of the match, until Ukraine broke the 23-23 deadlock for a 25-23 win.

Garcia and Robinson both finished the match with 13 points. Garcia had 10 kills, two blocks and an ace, and Robinson had 12 kills and a block. Ewert had seven kills; and McHenry had six points on three kills, two blocks and an ace. Champlin scored four points (one kill, two blocks, one ace), and Rowan had a block.

Ukraine led the U.S. in kills (40-33) and aces (5-3), but the U.S. held the edge in blocks (8-6).
