Ralph and Young have known each other in volleyball circles for years.

They played club volleyball together throughout high school, and were rivals in the same college conference. Ralph was at Central Methodist University and Young went to Graceland University.

Speaking of rivals, Ralph is looking forward to see what playing brings out in her team.

“We’re going for the sweep,” she said of the two regular season and district game they’ll have with the Blue Devils.

The regular season games with MRH are Sept. 14 at Brentwood and Oct. 2 at Maplewood.
