After coming off a 19-12 season in 2013, the Sutton Fillies, under the direction of new coach Adam Kuntz, turned a big corner in 2014.

Coming off an impressive C2-2 District title win over Nebraska Christian Nov.

Passing and serving, the two tangibles that head coach Adam Kuntz knew would be key for his Sutton Fillies to advance to the 2014 state volleyball tournament, proved huge Friday night. The Fillies, behind 58 digs, 32 assists, 16 blocks, 10 ace serves and 38 kills rolled to a four set, 25-8, 25-17, 21-25, 25-13 win over Central City’s Nebraska Christian High School, to advance to state. “I told the girls before we stepped onto the floor Friday night, that this is a match that I call a program builder, and that as long as we pass well and serve well, the rest of our game will come to us...and it did.”

 

Traditions begin somewhere and somehow. In the mind of the Sutton volleyball coach, for his program, that time is here. Adam Kuntz, new to the Sutton program this year after four years at Hartington Cedar Catholic and one year at Sumner- Eddyville-Miller, knows what building tradition feels like.
