State Champion Urbana Volleyball

After winning the school's first state championship in volleyball, Urbana High volleyball coach Jerry Burge and two of his daughters who are on the team, Charis and Logan, are this week's guests on The Final Score podcast.

The Burges chat with host Greg Swatek about the Hawks' dramatic five-set win over Arundel in the Class 4A championship match. They discuss why their season was so successful and how Urbana managed to knock off a team riding a 30-match winning streak in the state final.

Jerry Burge talks about raising six daughters, who were all volleyball players, and how that sport became such a huge part of their family. Charis and Logan also share their perspective on why they love playing the sport so much and being coached by their father.

Prior to that, FNP sports writers John Cannon and Alexander Dacy stop by to talk about the state football semifinals and Oakdale's upcoming 3A championship game against Damacus in Annapolis this weekend. What are the Bears' chances of winning their second state title?
