Stony Point says, Why Not Us?
THE 6-ROTATION: Why Not Us? The Stony Point Tigers on the prowl
The theme for this season is simple: "Why Not Us?"
Two players poised for breakout seasons are senior outside hitter Ella Larbi and junior right side Ryleigh Sapp, both of whom are expected to take on much larger roles in 2026.
“These young ladies are relentless and fight hard through everything they do,” Miller said. “They have high expectations for themselves, and their work ethic is amazing. We return a strong offensive group and can't wait to show people what we are made of.”
With an experienced core, emerging playmakers and a team built around belief and determination, Stony Point has all the ingredients to make plenty of noise this season.
