Eagles VolleyballChesnee volleyball had a strong first season under new head coach Katie Jolley in 2018 as they finished with a 17-10 overall record while earning a second place finish in Region II-3A. The Lady Eagles were able to defeat Union County in the first round of the playoffs before losing to eventual state champions Powdersville in the second round. One early season question for the Lady Eagles is how do they replace Abby Fisher who was lost to graduation. Fisher was the key setter on the 2018 squad and finished her career with over one-thousand career assists. The frontline looks to be a strength for the Lady Eagles as they return 3A All-State and Region II-3A Player of the Year Abbey Ray along with All-Region selection AC Yelton. The two have combined to form a powerful duo over the years as both are looking to pass the one-thousand career kills mark and they look to continue that production as they look to lead the Lady Eagles to another playoff run. Another key returner is Shelby Harris who also was named to the All-Region team. Harris came on strong in the second half of the season and was able to solidify the Libero position for the Lady Eagles to help lead the team to a strong region finish. Anna Sullivan, Shenandoah Bishop, and Kaitlyn Barrett all return to help the Eagles as Sullivan will be key at the net defensively for the Lady Eagles. Barrett who was also named All-Region is developing into another solid striker to pair with Ray and Yelton. Bishop is an All-Around player who is solid on both the front and back lines. Jessa Beach, Holly Hines, and Karley Swaney will look to strengthen an already deep Lady Eagles squad. The Lady Eagles will start off their 2019 home schedule with a match against Greer on August 28th and hope it will propel them to a long playoff run this season.

Roberts will be joined on the team by her sister seventh grader Olivia Roberts who the Eagles look to get a strong season from. Becca Watson and Caitlyn Cash also were named to the All-Region squad last season. Isabella Britt is also looking for a strong season for the Lady Eagles as she has already helped the Lady Eagles win the Ponderosa Preview Preseason Tournament with a second place individual finish. Britt and Roberts, who finished third at the tournament, were both named to the All-Tournament team. Addie Vinesett and Paige Scruggs look to round out a strong Lady Eagles squad that looks to defend it's Region II-3A Title and hopes to makes another run at both the Upper State and State Championships.
