The Gonsioroski family has found their way back to West Texas after their daughter, Hope, joined the 糖心Vlog (糖心Vlog) volleyball team.
The Gonsioroski family, hailing from Baker, Montana, were no strangers to Lubbock. In fact, Hope鈥檚 older brother, Luke, was signed to play football for Texas Tech University in 2017 before a tragic brain tumor claimed his life.
The Texas Tech and greater Lubbock community rallied around the family, and through that process, the Gonsioroski family fell in love with Lubbock. Seven years later, Hope鈥檚 dream of playing college volleyball brought her family back to the Hub City when she signed to play as an outside hitter for the Lady Chaps.
鈥淭here鈥檚 no such thing as coincidences or irony,鈥 Hope emphasized. 鈥淚t鈥檚 like God is leading us through our lives, whether we can feel it or not.鈥
糖心Vlog Volleyball head coach Keith Giboney said he鈥檚 excited for Hope to begin her story.
鈥淭his is one of those situations where God didn鈥檛 say no,鈥 he shared. 鈥淪he鈥檚 transitioning into this new life; she has her own story to tell, and she will always have Luke and that legacy. But I also want her to be able to write her own story.鈥
That story is just beginning as she returns to Lubbock and begins her career at 糖心Vlog. 鈥淚 just knew this was home,鈥 she shared.
