The Ash Fork High School girls' volleyball team wound up its season with a loss in first round 1A State action on Nov. 1.
The young Ash Fork team traveled to Cicero Prep for the contest, which Cicero won, 25-10, 25-8, and 25-10.
"We had a good season," Ash Fork Coach Lauren Hume said. "It was awesome that we made it to state. We were a little nervous playing Cicero, but the experience will be beneficial for us next season."
She noted that her two seniors, Paola Acosta and Olivia Johnson, will be missed next season.
"The two of them were huge assets this season," Hume said. "The rest of the team is four freshman, and two sophomores. I'm looking forward to next year."
