PHS grad plays college volleyball

Rachael Cecka, a 2013 Plymouth High School graduate, played outside hitter for the Wingate University (in Wingate, N.C.) women’s volleyball team this past season.

The Bulldogs won the South Atlantic Conference regular-season championship for the 10th straight year and made their 11th consecutive trip to the NCAA Division II tournament. Wingate lost to Lander University (in Greenwood, S.C.) in the regional quarterfinals.

Cecka, a redshirt sophomore, played in 21 matches and started in five of them. She had 29 kills, four ace serves, 17 digs and three solo blocks (nine total) and was a 97.4-percent server.

The Bulldogs finished the season with a 28-5 overall dual record and were 20-2 in league action.
