v-ball<br />
From Page 31<br />
“They’re aggressive all<br />
around,” New Trier’s Maggie<br />
Bodman said. “Their<br />
offense is insane and they<br />
run a variety of things.<br />
They’re really scrappy and<br />
a really good team.”<br />
In an odd twist, the second<br />
set mirrored the first,<br />
almost exactly. It featured<br />
12 ties again and had longer<br />
rallies.<br />
With the Tigers up 22-<br />
20, it looked as if the Trevians<br />
had drawn back to<br />
one when a ball bumped<br />
over by libero Julia Maisel<br />
dropped in the middle of<br />
the Central side, but a Trevian<br />
was called for having<br />
a part of their body under<br />
the net, giving the Tigers<br />
the point and a 23-20 lead,<br />
one New Trier wouldn’t<br />
recover from.<br />
Hsieh had said in the<br />
past that coming into the<br />
playoffs she had seen a<br />
path for her team to get<br />
downstate, but did she see<br />
a season like this?<br />
“We started off the season<br />
strong, we didn’t drop<br />
a set for the first 11 matches,”<br />
the coach said. “From<br />
then on, I think we went<br />
to every three-set match<br />
possible but that prepared<br />
them for the fight and being<br />
able to come back<br />
from behind.”<br />
Maddie McGregor and<br />
Gillian Klise led the team<br />
with five kills each, while<br />
Taite Ryan added three.<br />
Maisel had 14 digs and<br />
Payton Hielscher had 13<br />
assists.<br />
The 2018 edition of the<br />
Trevians looks to be even<br />
stronger, as it returns starters<br />
Hielscher, McGregor,<br />
Klise, Ryan, Bodman<br />
and Grace Bozzo, all of<br />
whom other than Bodman<br />
will be seniors, as well<br />
as some younger players<br />
who saw some time<br />
in the regular season and<br />
playoffs in Grace Magner,<br />
LuLu McShane and<br />
Katie Merk.<br />
“This (supersectional)<br />
definitely shows us what<br />
we can do,” Bodman said.<br />
“This shows how far we<br />
can go, what our limits are<br />
and gives us confidence<br />
going into next year.”<br />

with Galen Quinn<br />
The New Trier senior is<br />

Do you have any<br />
superstitions before,<br />

We do this thing called<br />
passing the rock, where<br />
we give a knuckle bump<br />
going down the boat.<br />
We’ve always done that.<br />

If you could travel<br />
anywhere in the<br />
world, where would it<br />
be and why?<br />
Japan because I have not<br />
been there but I’ve seen<br />
plenty of cool videos on<br />
it and seems like it’d be a<br />
cool location.<br />
What’s the hardest<br />
part about rowing?<br />
It’s not the most exciting<br />
sport and gets kind of<br />
boring sometimes so you<br />
have to endure. The mindset<br />
is the hardest part.<br />
What’s the best part<br />
about being a New<br />
Trier athlete?<br />
The team offers a lot of<br />
camaraderie. It’s a good<br />
place to go, no matter if<br />
you had a good day or a<br />
bad day. It’s a good constant<br />
in your life.<br />
What’s been your<br />
favorite moment at<br />
New Trier?<br />
This year when I got<br />
third place at Head of<br />
the Charles, a huge meet.<br />
After the meet, we were<br />
really surprised and it felt<br />
like a good race.<br />
What’s one item on<br />
your bucket list?<br />
To travel the world but<br />
also to create a business<br />
I’m really passionate<br />
about.<br />
What’s one thing<br />
people don’t know<br />
about you?<br />
I started a company, an<br />
app development company.<br />
It’s called Bitbybite<br />
Inc.<br />
What’s the best<br />
Photo Submitted<br />
coaching advice you’ve<br />
gotten and from who?<br />
Coach (Jack) Rusher, he<br />
told us to think that every<br />
stroke is our last.<br />
If you could play<br />
another sport, what<br />
would it be and why?<br />
I would play volleyball. I<br />
used to play but I love the<br />
dynamic and something<br />
different than rowing.<br />
What’s your favorite<br />
restaurant on the<br />
North Shore?<br />
Walker Bros. I get a Santa<br />
Fe omelette with pico de<br />
gallo and hash browns.<br />
