On the subvarsity level, the ninth grade A team (25-9, 25-11) and the JV (25-14, 25-15) won in straight sets to complete the program sweep.
Todd led the varsity squad with team-highs in kills (15), digs (17), and aces (three). Berkley added 12 kills, 13 digs, and a block while Trott added seven kills. Senior setters Sophie Frank and Kailey Hamilton combined for 18 digs. Hamilton had two aces and 10 assists while Frank recorded 21 assists. Kenley Hamilton finished with three aces and 10 digs while senior middle Lily Lufkin anchored the front line defense with five blocks.
