Girls varsity volleyball team crush the Alameda Hornets

The CVHS varsity girls volleyball team took down Alameda High School on Oct. 17 with a final score of 3 sets to none.

With a long junior varsity game right before the varsity match, the team was eager to start playing. 

The first set was close with the scoring being tied almost the entire time. At the end, the Trojans managed to pull ahead and end the first set with a score of 25-19. 

The last two sets were also won by us, but Alameda was a strong opponent and almost caught up multiple times. The second and third sets were 25-17 and 25-19 respectively. Despite the close game, the Trojans’ top player, junior Tessa Smith, was confident and sure that her team would win.

“I think going into it we were trying not to get too cocky coming off of our last wins, but I think that we were able to execute well and keep them struggling, which I think was really important for us winning this game. I think, overall, as a team we did like pretty well,” said Smith

With great teamwork and with this game being their second win in a row, the girls were confident and optimistic about playing against Alameda.

“Pre-game, I was coming into the game pretty confident. I knew what we were capable of and what we were going to do and what we were going to do to win,” said junior Maddie Lew.

The varsity girls volleyball team won their division 1 game against Los Lomas on Oct. 29, giving them a chance to win the North Coast Section.
