Coach Brents and Coach Lucas's Volleyball Camp Information is now available!! We are changing the format this year. Instead of offering camp based upon your grade we have decided to base it according to skill level and experience. Any player that has recently played on a club team, understands systems/position play, and can overhand serve consistently should plan to attend the club session from 8:00-10:30 on August 6, 7, and 8th. Inexperienced players should attend from 10:30-1:00 also on the same dates. **At the coaches discretion campers may be moved into the session that best fits their ability level.
Cost is $125 per person. Fees include camp instruction, camp t-shirt, and a volleyball if registration is received by July 17th. Please e-mail the form or return it with your child before the last day of school. Payment is not due until the first day of camp. Limited scholarships are available...please contact Coach Brents at [email protected] for more information.
Access camp registration form below or tell your child to pick up a copy in the female coaches office.

10/31/17 Congratulations to the 7th and 8th grade volleyball teams for defeating Lanier last night. The 7th grade won in 2 games by a score of 25-20 and 25-20. Tyiah Wheeler, Angel Simple, Aivy Huynh, Piper Stephenson and Rosalie Zaldivar served strong and kept Lanier off guard.
Pershing 8th graders took a more interesting route to victory. It took 3 games to win with scores of 25-21, 16-25, before finally putting the foot on the gas and cruising to an easy 25-13 win in game 3.
Skye Sustala, and Nadia Toh played great along the front row. Kayla Smith was a wall at blocker, and Natalie King”s serves were outstanding. Nia LaFrance was a beast all around with blocks, kills, and amazing serves.
Great job ladies!!
Come out and support the Pershing teams next Monday at our last game of the season against Pin Oak.

Congratulations to the 8th grade volleyball team for winning the HISD Lamar Volleyball championship this weekend. The girls went undefeated in pool play before beating Lanier in the semi-finals and then Briar Meadow for the third time this season to win the championship.
Natalie King and Adeline Lasics serves proved too much for Briar Meadow in the championship game. Nadia Toh played textbook defense and kept us alive with amazing all around play.
Nia La France, Farah Farooq and Skye Sustala played great all day and were named to the all tournament team.
The 7th graders hung tough at the 8th grade tournament improving every game. Congratulations to Angel Simple for being named to the all tournament team as well.
Great job ladies!! We are super proud of you all!! Everyone come out and support us today against Lanier at 4:30.

I would like to extend my thoughts, prayers, and best wishes to everyone who was affected by Hurricane Harvey. I have received several emails about volleyball tryouts...right now everything is on hold until our wonderful superintendent declares that it is safe to return to campus for the start of the school year. Our priority right now is to make sure that everyone is out of harms way, has a roof over their head, and the assistance they need to move forward toward recovery from this devastating storm. Once school starts and we receive guidance from the district I will provide updates.
