The last of the 2005 post season awards were announced recently by the Texas Sports Writers Association and Magnolia Lady Bulldog OH Lauren Michael was awarded Honorable Mention for her play during the 2005 5A season. This was Lauren's second consecutive selection with the Texas Sports Writers Association and interestingly enough - Lauren and OH Candice Davis from Clear Creek were the only two Class 5A selections in the entire Houston area!! You've probably read the earlier post with the announcement from the Texas Girl Coaches Association naming Heather Bowden, Mary Chadwick and Carly Springer to the 2005 TGCA All State All Academic team and a little later, the TGCA announced Lauren Michael as a member of the 2005 TGCA All State All Star Team as an alternate.
(l to r: Carly Springer, Heather Bowden, Lauren Michael and Mary Chadwick.)
Since that announcement, the Houston Chronicle released their selections for the 2005 All-Greater Houston Volleyball teams and Lauren was selected for their Third team. Congratulations, Lauren and to the Magnolia Lady Bulldogs and their fans, for a great season and for putting Magnolia on the Texas "Volleyball Map". There will undoubtedly be a lot more awards and recognition and coming the future Lady Bulldogs' way in the years to come!!
