    Wilson's 8 member Girls Volleyball Team placed first out of 231 teams in the state with a combined average of 96.972. This is Wilson's first Scholar/Athlete State Championship in the state program 's 14-year history. Wilson is the Section's 5th school to earn the Girls Volleyball S/A State title in the last 10 years. Their team GPA of 96.972 is only .028 of a point away from the state's highest average in the fourteen years of the program. They are second only to Monticello of Section 9 that won the state title in1998 with an average of 97.0. The amazing fact is that all girls are juniors and have another chance to eclipse that mark next year.
     
    Not only were the Lakewomen good in the classroom, their 9 wins, 5 losses earned them a 2nd Place Finish in the competitive Niagara Orleans League and a Sectional Quarter-Final victory over Southwestern before bowing to Falconer in the Semi-Finals.
