BY Kevin Hageland khageland@acnpapers.com
Lovejoy sophomore Andie Malloy will be a part of the U.S. Girls Youth National Volleyball Team that is competing in the 2010 NORCECA Youth Continental Championship.
This event, which is April 27-May 1 in Guatemala City, is a 10-team qualifier into the first-ever Youth Olympic Games, as well as the 2011 FIVB Youth World Championship. The U.S. is ranked No. 2 in the world in the girls youth division behind Mexico. The top three teams in the NORCECA Youth Continental Championship final standings earn a berth to compete in the 2011 FIVB Girls Youth World Championship, which will be held in Turkey.
Malloy, a setter and outside hitter, was one of 12 girls selected for the team after taking part in a seven-day tryout at the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs.
