CASPER, WY — The Big Horn Lady Rams celebrated a historic achievement on Saturday, securing their fourth consecutive Class 2A state volleyball championship at the Ford Wyoming Center. The 36‑3 squad became only the fifth high‑school volleyball program in Wyoming history to win four straight titles at any level, adding to a remarkable run of five championships in the past six years.

Coach and players reflect on the run

Head coach Alli Nikont praised the seniors for their consistency, saying, “These kids have won a state championship every year they’ve been in high school, and that’s unbelievable. It’s hard every year, but they’ve risen to the challenge.” Junior guard Maci Winterland noted the team’s mindset: “We prepared for everyone to bring their best game. The only team that could beat us was ourselves.” Senior Leah Phillips added, “We kept the energy, stayed positive, stayed focused, and had a lot of fun together.”

Senior farewell

For seniors like Teeka Baker, the victory marked a bittersweet final chapter. “Once you hit senior year it’s like, this is the last year I’m going to play,” Baker said. “Some people will go on to play in college, but this is my last chance. It felt weird playing my final game on the court.”

Lovell repeats in Class 3A

In the same tournament, the Lovell Bulldogs clinched a repeat championship in Class 3A, defeating Tongue River in the final. Lovell advanced past Newcastle and Mountainview in the semifinals and overcame the Lady Eagles in a four‑set showdown, finishing the season with an impressive 321‑overall record.

Both programs demonstrated strong defense, powerful hits, and disciplined net play, underscoring the depth of high‑school volleyball talent across Wyoming.
