Team Work Success Story!

Last Friday O-I held its 29th Annual volleyball tournament. The games were competitive and the evening was a fun filled night. Fellow pathway graduates were scattered amongst several teams and notably, the Holy Toledo pathways class had several members present. Chris S., Ryan S., and Jenilee were all on a team together. They went undefeated all night and the championship game was coming up. Fellow mate Steve V. who was on an opposing team and had been eliminated during the event, took it upon himself to gather up individuals who were not playing to keep our team practicing and warm for the championship game. Given that our team had gone undefeated, in order for the other team to win they would have to beat us twice. Game one of the championship came upon us and we failed to work as a team like we had been doing so well at all night. We lost the first game, now the title was on the line. Steve V. came onto the court during our break before the final game and he talked to all of us about "what was working well" and all of us started putting our heads together and back in the game. Chris S., Ryan S., and Jenilee carried home their championship trophies that night. The support and teamwork together was priceless and our fellow pathway members helped make it all happen. That's KNUCKLES all around!!
