Biddeford standout signs National Letter of Intent to play college volleyball

BIDDEFORD — Biddeford volleyball standout Kendra Cote signed her National Letter of Intent to play college volleyball at Missouri Valley College next fall.

Cote was excited to take the much anticipated step toward the next phase of her volleyball career.

“It feels good because it’s a big weight lifted off my shoulders. I’ve been looking at schools for two years now so finally choosing on one is really great,” said Cote.

Cote emerged as one of the state’s premiere players during her tenure at BHS. Cote proved to be one of the hardest-hitting players in Maine, and most recently led the Tigers to a playoff berth in the Class A playoffs.

Strong defense carries Biddeford to 3-2 win over South Portland
The Tigers win the first, third and fifth games to improve to 8-2.

...“They have really good hitters – (Molly Mawhinney), if she gets a clean swing and we’re not in the right position, that’s a score every time,” said Biddeford Coach Chantel Tourigny. “Towards the end, we did much better getting a dig from our outside defense on those and it definitely made a difference.”

Leading the way for the Tigers was junior setter Brooke Reissfelder.

“That was probably the best defensive game I’ve seen from a setter in high school,” Tourigny said. ”

South Portland jumped to an early 8-5 lead in the first game before Biddeford responded with an impressive 20-10 run the rest of the way to take the first game. Mia Martel led the way, recording four blocks and two kills in the opening game. Reissfelder had four of her eight assists.
