Now Whitehead, who plays middle blocker for the Bulldogs, turns her focus towards the volleyball court, where she was named to the District 21-5A first team last season.
Whitehead said she and her teammates are gelling during summer league and are looking forward to the start of the volleyball season when school starts back up in August.
