The state championships for girls' high school volleyball began this week. Among the competing Division II schools is Parker School, a small private school on Hawai'i Island.
This is the first time its girls’ team has qualified for the state tournament in the school's nearly 50-year history. HPR talked with the team’s coach, Sharon Peterson, about their shot at the championship.
The team will take on No. 4-ranked Castle High School of Oʻahu in the first round of the Division II tournament on Wednesday.
