The Lady Eagles volleyball team returns to the court this fall, aiming to build on momentum and sharpen its competitive edge. Known for its athleticism and tenacity, the program enters the 2025 season led by Head Coach Jaimie Johnson ready to challenge opponents and climb in district standings.

Last year, the Lady Eagles finished fourth in district play with a 25-16 overall record, ending the season above .500 and eager to build on that success.

With strong leadership and an emphasis on teamwork, the team is honing its communication, serve-receive strategies and net play to continue to compete at the highest level. Off the court, the program continues to foster a culture of academic accountability and personal integrity.

“This group is locked in and ready to compete,” Johnson said. “We’ve set high expectations for this season, on the court and in the classroom. Our focus has been on communication, consistency and confidence. Our returning players are setting the tone, and our newcomers are stepping up. I expect us to push harder, grow stronger and compete at a level that reflects the pride and tradition of DeSoto volleyball.”

This year, the squad will rely on experienced returners and newcomers eager to make an impact. The coaching staff is focused on developing well-rounded student-athletes who bring energy and confidence to every match.

As DeSoto ISD champions the theme “Constructing Our Future,” the volleyball team demonstrates how daily effort and team spirit build winning habits on and off the court.
