2017 DHS Volleyball Season Now Underway


The Dorchester High School volleyball team's 2017 campaign is now underway.

Last Thursday, the Lady Longhorns kicked off the season with a very competitive match at Class D-1 East Butler, as DHS lost a squeaker in five sets by scores of: 26-24, 21-25, 25-19, 13-25, 15-12.

This year, there are high expectations, with key returning sophomores and seniors, along with talented freshmen, donning the orange and black -- representing their school.  

Bottom line: It appears the mighty DHS will field a very competitive volleyball team in 2017.

This week, Dorchester will play in a triangular at Weeping on Thursday, Aug. 31, as the Lady Longhorns take on Class C-2 Palmyra and Class D-1 Weeping Water.

The Lady Longhorns are looking to continue a culture of winning traditions under fifth-year head coach Ty Peteranetz and very capable assistant coaches.  

Coach Peteranetz is a self-described "transplanted, Colorado-born Husker fan" who moved to Nebraska in 2011 after 30 years in Colorado to be a volleyball coach.  He teaches Dorchester's fourth grade.

Here's a look at this year's DHS volleyball schedule:
