Girls VB Finishes 3^rd in OAL

Lady Wildcats celebrate their OAL awards

For the first time in five years, the Varsity Volleyball team finished in the top half of the league.  With a 5-5 record and some strategic wins, The Lady Wildcats came in 3^rd this year, finishing behind Tech and Skyline. Despite having many young and inexperienced players, the JV team pulled out a 6-4 record. “It’s all about teamwork,” says Varsity Captain Tierra Lu. “Doesn’t matter how great a player you are individually, if you don’t work together, you won’t win.”

Four of the Varsity players also earned OAL All-City awards: Setter/Outside Hitter Leah Saechow (11) received 1^st Team honors, Outside Hitter Nicole Soriano (11) won a spot on the 2^nd Team, and both Lu and Samantha Puni (11) were awarded Honorable Mention.

Says Coach Dellefield about the season, “We had a strong team this year, and everybody played a role and helping us win.  Even games we lost, we were competitive. I’m proud of them.”
