The 7th/8th grade girls assured themselves a playoff spot with a win last night, but who they would play would be determined by their game this morning at CYO Serramonte.
Up against a team with a (5-2) record coming into the game, the 7th/8th grade girls took on the challenge and played their best game of the year in a dominating 25-16, 25-10 performance.
Unlike their game Friday night, the team they played actually had a pulse and had an idea of what they were doing out on a volleyball court.
The girls took notice and then took it to the other team, executing several bump, set and spikes, and limiting their errors to a minimum.
Right now the girls are peaking at the right time as they will play in their first volleyball playoff game, the school's first in two years.
The returning girls Cynthia and Isabella have been the best they have in their three years of volleyball and all the new 8th graders are peaking at the right time.
Sabrina, the lone St. Mary's girl left on the team since the departure of Belin to Southern California, consistently serves the ball over the net with ease.
Jocelyn has really come around in the last few games, with punishing serves and spikes.
The girls are starting to build the team chemistry that was lacking even in a few weeks ago, and they picked a good time to start gelling with the playoffs right around the corner.
With the win today, they wrap up the season with a (6-2) record, losing only to the top two teams in the division. They lost to both of those teams in the beginning of the year as well, so things could be very different when the teams meet again.
The six wins in a season are also the most for a St. Mary's volleyball team in modern day history.
