Macon East Academy seniors Maddie Ross and Savannah Sharpe both accepted scholarships to continue their volleyball careers at Southern Union Community College in a signing ceremony held at the school recently. They both helped lead the Lady Knights to a Class AAA runner-up finish in the state volleyball tournament this past season Maddie is an outside hitter and has played with the Lady Knights team the past four years, including the state championship team in 2018. She has played in two state championship finals and been a part of two final four teams. She finished the season with 201 kills and 125 digs. Savannah has only been on the team for one year, but prior to this season she was a part of three state championships and a national championship. She finished the 2021 season with 600 assists. Both girls are all-around positive role models at Macon East and we wish them all the best!
