(Seguin) — The crowd came out to see some new and old faces at Goldie Harris Gym on Friday night for the inaugural Seguin High School alumni volleyball game. The game is the brainchild of first year volleyball coach Ashley Farris, who comes to Seguin from Magnolia High School in North Houston. Farris says the game was something they had at Magnolia and she wanted to bring it to Seguin High School.
“It’s really important for the alumni to have something like this to have something to come back to and be apart of. I found out there wasn’t one (here), so I wanted to start it and I (was) super excited for this to be our first annual alumni game.”
The stands were packed as the game featured former Lady Mats going all the way back to the 1990’s. Farris was excited to see the crowd and she says she’s thrilled to be in Seguin.
“I’m very excited to be a part of this community. People love to come to events to support each other, so I’m really just excited to be a part of such a family full of tradition.”

The Lady Mats first game of the 2022 season is Tuesday night on the road at San Antonio Roosevelt.
