DePaul Prep Girls Volleyball Defeats Whitney Young

By Jack Lydon

Volleyball is underway and the DePaul Prep Rams have picked up where they off after last year’s first appearance in the IHSA State Finals. The Rams were in 3A last year but with the application of the “multiplier,” a mathmatical increase at a factor of 1.65 to a school’s enrollment for classification purposes, DePaul Prep lands in 4A, the highest classification in girls volleyball.

The Rams have matches against in the young season, losing to Glenbrook North 1-2 on Tuesday and beating Whitney Young 2.0 on Thursday.

The Rams have a busy week ahead. They play Lane Tech on Tuesday evening at Lane, then three games in the Evergreen Park Tournament on Wednesday and the much anticipated outdoor match on the football field against St. Ignatius on Saturday evening.

More about the outdoor match to come. For the moment, you will just have to settle for the photos from the Whitney Young match.
