MVP Cote a hard-hitting force in 2016

For the second straight season, the Biddeford volleyball team enjoyed a successful season while being led by an all-state senior … last year was Gatorade state player of the year Jocelyn Moody, this year it was Kendra Cote.

Perhaps Cote’s biggest strength was in her strength itself, proving to be one of the state’s hardest-hitting players in 2016.

“Kendra was our strongest offensive weapon on the court this year,” said Biddeford coach Chantel Tourigny. “The strength of her hits made playing defense against her very challenging. We were very successful in all the games where we could capitalize on her offense.”

Not only was Cote’s presence great during games, but her performance during practice also benefitted the rest of her team, as her elite play prepared the Tigers for any punch they would face.
