On Friday, Sept. 19, Conestoga Valley (CV) School District will induct two teams into the CV Athletics Hall of Fame: the 1982-83 boys' volleyball team and the 1995-96 girls' basketball team. The induction ceremony and reception will take place in the main lobby and auditorium of the high school, 2110 Horseshoe Road, Lancaster, beginning at 5 p.m. The inductees and their families will also be honored that evening at halftime during CV's football game against Spring Grove.

The 1995-96 CV girls' basketball team was led by five seniors - Jen Hauck, Carrie Kulp, Amy MacDonald, Shannon Schwilk, and Tracy Younker. Underclassmen included Jen Wanner, Kelli Crouch, Corina Martin, Amy Gray, Meaghan Roe, Angie Wyble, Karen MacDonald, and Nicole Guito. The team was coached by head coach Tom Hillen and assistants Mike Milligan and Luke Carlino.

The team launched its season with an 11-game winning streak. The first setback came in a tightly contested 59-57 home loss to Lancaster Catholic, but CV embarked on another winning streak that culminated in a rematch with Lancaster Catholic on the final night of section play. CV prevailed 62-55, setting up a playoff game at Warwick High School.

The Lady Bucks advanced in the Lancaster-Lebanon League playoffs, eventually squaring off against Cumberland Valley in the District 3 AAAA Championship. The team sealed a 54-53 win and CV's first-ever District 3 AAAA title.

In the PIAA State Tournament, CV defeated North Penn 62-46 before falling to Northampton in the second round, 55-46. The Lady Bucks finished with a 27-3 record - the best in school history.

The second squad to be inducted will be the 1982-83 boys' volleyball club/team, which included Dave Evans, Tim Lichty, Dave Sauer, Todd Stehman, Tod Tompkins, Dale Witmer, Ernie Zagers, Wayne King, and Herb Waltz, along with coaches Pete Leach and Mike Miles. CV did not add boys' volleyball to its list of varsity sports until after the team won the district title, so for several years prior to 1982, the Buckskins participated as an independent team, competing against schools and in tournaments throughout central Pennsylvania. They practiced in the high school gym but hosted no home games.

After a grueling regular season, the CV boys qualified for the District 3 Tournament. On the last day of competition, the Bucks faced Central York and recorded a 15-10, 15-12 victory.

In the PIAA State Tournament, CV defeated Lehman, Plum, and Cambridge Springs in the preliminary games before moving on to semifinals and defeating Penn Hills 15-11, 15-11. The final game of the year was against the Tigers of North Allegheny from District 7. After overcoming first-game nerves, the Bucks rallied to win 9-15, 15-13, 16-14. Members of this team have the distinct honor of being the only "club team" representatives to have their names engraved on the state championship trophy.
