Former Cavalier April Lyons, who was recently named the team’s new varsity volleyball coach, stands in front of the Class 3A state championship banner she helped the team win in 1998. Lyons was Calvert’s junior varsity coach the last four years.
New volleyball coach hoping to follow successful footsteps
April Lyons will try to become yet another successful Calvert High School volleyball coach after the former Cavalier was recently named head varsity coach.
Calvert’s run through the 13-and-under Babe Ruth Baseball Maryland State All-Star Tournament came to an end in the championship game on Tuesday, with a loss to Frederick at Regency Furniture Stadium in Waldorf.
After a recent five-game losing streak, Calvert American Legion Post 85, 206, 220 and 274 would take a win any way it could. And against visiting Mayo on Wednesday at Hallowing Point Park in Prince Frederick, the team earned a 4-3 victory thanks to one of the more obscure rules of the game.
