Greetings! My name is Tracy Wilkinson and I’m a sophomore defensive specialist on the volleyball team. I started playing with the amazing Bulldogs last spring season. I was fortunate enough to be invited by Coach Collier to be a part of the team!! It’s great and I love it. Everyone is awesome.

I want to use my “blog” to give a huge THANK YOU to all of my teammates, their parents, my closest friends, family and coaches. As most of you know or have heard, these last few weeks haven’t been that great for me and I know for a fact that I wouldn’t be where I am right now if it weren’t for each of you.

Each and every one of you is very special to me and you’ll never know how lucky I am to have you (in my life). Thank you so much for all your care and concern. (Also, thank you soooo much for my elephant!! Her name is Ellie and she sleeps with me every night!)

Thank you for showing me how important TRUE friends are and how easy they can be found. Each of you will always hold a special place in my heart because if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be as strong as I am now. I love you very much, from the bottom of my heart…

On Saturday night (Oct. 6), we got back from our first Tennessee trip around 11 p.m. We beat Carson-Newman on Friday night (Oct. 5) in three games. On Saturday, we traveled to Lincoln Memorial to gain another win! It was a long trip, but every minute was very enjoyable. We have a great group! Thanks to all the parents who could make it! Our next match is Friday (Oct. 12) at Tusculum. Wish us luck; it’ll be a tough one!
