Volleyball Team – 15th State Championship!<br />
Bobby Blair, Athletic Director<br />
Cheerleading<br />
The cheerleaders competed at JamFest events in Gatlinburg <strong>and</strong><br />
Indianapolis where they represented <strong>Assumption</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong><br />
with pride. They also brought a special flare to the basketball<br />
games this winter where they worked hard to generate energy<br />
from our crowd. Seniors Katie Burch, Hannah Fieldhouse, Sarah<br />
Reynolds, <strong>and</strong> Am<strong>and</strong>a Whelan dedicated themselves <strong>and</strong><br />
cheered all four years at AHS. This team will miss their leadership,<br />
but Coach Courtney Metcalf has a great group of young cheerleaders<br />
ready to step in <strong>and</strong> carry on with the team success!<br />
Dance<br />
The varsity dance team gave it their all at UDA nationals <strong>and</strong><br />
finished eighth in the nation for small varsity jazz with their<br />
dynamic performance. This team returned home <strong>and</strong> claimed the<br />
top spot in the Small Varsity Jazz Division at the 2011 Kentucky<br />
Dance Coaches Organization (KDCO) State Championships.<br />
Congratulations to the dance team <strong>and</strong> Coach Greta Auter on a<br />
tremendous season!<br />

Basketball<br />
The signature win of the season for the 2010-2011 Rocket<br />
basketball team came in the second round of the Louisville<br />
Invitational Tournament (LIT). This team was down 12 points<br />
with two minutes to go <strong>and</strong> somehow clawed back <strong>and</strong><br />
defeated Ballard by three in overtime. The Rockets were led<br />
by one senior, Maggie Hartlage, who was later named to the<br />
Second Team All Region for the highly competitive Seventh<br />
Region. The individual accolades continued with Morgan<br />
Foley being named to the Seventh Region All Tournament<br />
Team for her efforts in the season ending loss to the numberone<br />
ranked Manual Crimsons in the first round of the regional<br />
tournament. Congratulations to the basketball team <strong>and</strong> Coach<br />
Stephanie Greathouse for their demonstration of grit <strong>and</strong><br />
determination on <strong>and</strong> off the basketball floor!<br />

Swimming<br />
The Rocket swim team capped off a phenomenal season by taking fourth place<br />
at the KHSAA Swimming <strong>and</strong> Diving Meet! This ties our school record-best finish<br />
that many of these same swimmers won in the 2010 state championship. Special<br />
kudos go out to Michelle Gasior <strong>and</strong> Carolyn Stewart who earned a spot on the<br />
second team all state. Congratulations to the swim team <strong>and</strong> coach Julie May on<br />
a great year!<br />
