The Scrimmage will start at 4:30 pm and end at approximately 7:00 pm. There will be limited seating with all three courts in use. Camp Chairs are acceptable.
Freshmen, JV & Varsity will open their season away at Merrimack High School on Friday. Coaches will inform each team of their bus schedule early this week.
The Practice Squad will meet Tonight (Monday) from 6:00 pm to 7:30 pm and Thursday right after school (2:45 – 4:15).
There will be a Parents & Booster Meeting this Wednesday September 4th at 7:00 PM in the Morissette Room. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

Hello Hawks,
We recently got approval from the athletic office to conduct a Practice Squad. It is our hope that this will, at some point in the future, turn into JV Blue. It is our understanding that most, if not all fall sports have a 4th Team (i.e. JV Blue) so we are confident this will eventually happen. While we don’t think we will have official matches this season (a scrimmage only potential) perhaps it is something that could be considered next season.
Those players who were informed of this opportunity at tryouts should meet in the Small Gym Tomorrow after school (Thursday, August 29) at 2:45 (or as close as possible).
See you all there,
Coach Mike

Hello Hawks and Future Hawks!
We have had an additional Schedule change for Wednesday. Due to multiple upperclassmen working the Freshmen Orientation, we have moved Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors to a new time:
Additionally, Our Athletic Trainer, Heidi Kirby, has scheduled concussion testing at 7:00 am on Thursday Morning. All players must be evaluated every two years (likely Freshmen and Juniors will make up the majority of the testing this year).
Very Excited to see everyone tomorrow!!!
Coach Mike

A Note from Coach McDonnell:
“While we wish we had the resources to take all players, volleyball is very well attended at Exeter and unfortunately there may be cuts. We ask all parents to prepare their children for that possibility and let them know that giving their best effort should never be looked upon as failure. We like to remind players that many a great player was initially cut from their high school team (Michael Jordan comes to mind). Try hard and regret nothing!
Often times we have players come out for volleyball because they have been encouraged that it is, or they perceive it to be, the “easiest” of the fall sports. It is my experience that those players are shocked at what is required of them when they arrive. Tryouts will be rigorous and volleyball is a demanding sport that requires physicality, stamina and a particular set of motor skills, . We strongly recommend players come to tryouts fit and having practiced over the summer to reduce the risk of injury and improve their chances of a successful tryout. Good luck to all!”
Additional Information:
Up to date information can be found on this site and the official athletic site for EHS is here.
Please check to make sure all forms are filled out completely and
signed by parents and students where indicated.
Thanks and good luck to all,
