Desirae and Dominique Buccigrossi, rising seniors on the Fox Chapel girls volleyball team, are confident their final high school season will include an appearance in the WPIAL playoffs.
The twins, better known as Dez and Dom, have been playing volleyball since the sixth grade. They are optimistic the playoffs are an attainable goal.
“We lost a lot of talented seniors,” Dom said. “They’ll be missed, but we have a lot of good players coming back, and we’ve been working hard. We have a good outlook and a good coach.”
Des agreed, saying: “We’ve been playing club volleyball together. We know that with last year’s seniors gone, this is our time to step up. The entire team knows we have to work together. We’re confident in each other, and we have set a goal of making the playoffs. It’s a priority.”
Fox Chapel coach Sarah Kirsch is glad to have the sisters back for one more year.
