Troy Farsakian (Energy VBC Boys’ 16 Blue) was honored this past week by the Glenbrook South High
School Volleyball Program. Varsity Head Coach Tim Monahan awarded the
Junior Varsity standout with the coveted Bryan Paynter Team Award, which is
presented to an athlete that displays countless acts of leadership on and off
the court, strong sportsmanship throughout the season, and strong
desire/heart to be a Titan of Glenbrook South.
Energy VBC is proud to have
Troy as a part of the Energy family. Congradulations to Troy and the
Farsakian family for this impressive accomplishment!!
Senior Lauren LaGioia, Outside Hitter on Energy VBC’s Girls’ 18 Blue, has
signed a letter of intent to play at Division II power house University of
Wisconsin — Parkside. Lauren finished a senior season at Niles West as team
MVP and turned an off season of hard work and training into a successful
Club season.
Lauren has played 2 seasons of club volleyball with Energy VBC, both as a
6-rotation Outside Hitter. In the 2008–2009 season, she led her team in
kills, attempts, hitting percentage, digs and passing. In the 2009–2010
season, she led her team in kills, was second in attempts, second in digs,
and third in hitting percentage. Her leadership on and off the court helped
lead her 18 Blue team to 4 tournament victories, and a 15th place finish in
the Silver bracket at the Kansas City USAV National Qualifier.
Lauren will compete for a starting outside hitter position as an
incoming freshman on a young Parkside team. Lauren is pursuing a career as a
Physician Assistant.
Senior Angie Walinski, Outside Hitter and Co-Captain of Energy VBC’s
Girls’ 18 Blue, has chosen to play the 2010–2011 season at Carthage College
in Wisconsin. Angie finished off a great high school career at Niles North with multiple all
conference and team MVP awards.
Angie has played 2 years of Club volleyball
both with Energy and has been a leader on and off the court. Her work ethic
has developed her from a front row specialist to a 6-rotation player. She
helped lead her 18 Blue team to 4 tournament victories, a 15th place finish
in the Silver bracket at the Kansas City Qualifier, while leading the team
in digs, attempts and kills.
Angie will have the opportunity to compete for
a starting Outside Hitter position for Carthage’s Top 5 Division III program while studying Health Science.
