WHEREAS, the Colgan High School girls’ volleyball team of Prince William County won the Virginia High School League Class 6 state championship on November 19, 2021, at the Stuart C. Siegel Center in Richmond; and

WHEREAS, the Colgan High School Sharks defeated the Herndon High School Hornets in four sets to finish the season with an impressive 27–4 record and to bring home the school’s first team state championship; and

WHEREAS, after winning the first two sets of the match by scores of 25–17 and 26–24, the Colgan Sharks gave up the third set before mounting a 9–0 run in the fourth set and finishing it out by a score of 25–21; and
