Girls Volleyball:
Flintridge Sacred Heart rebounded nicely and quickly from its first loss of the season.
The Tologs dropped a four-set match to La Salle on Friday, dusted itself off, and were back to their winning ways of Monday.
FSHA got tested by a tough Arcadia squad, but the Tologs claimed victory by scores of 25-16, 24-26, 25-22 and 25-22.
Peyton DeJardin continues to set the pace and had 26 kills.
Caitlin Du added 22 digs and Milena Andrade provided 29 assists.
For Arcadia, Chayse Hoon had five kills and five blocks.
Olivia Ip contributed nine kills and a block.
Ruby Ackerman finished with three kills and 12 assists.
And Cathy Shin contributed 11 assists for the Apaches.
Up next: Arcadia will travel to Muir tomorrow (Tuesday) afternoon and open Pacific League play.
And FSHA hosts La Canada on Wednesday evening at 6.
Quotable:
Arcadia coach, Stephen Bernabe: “We played a good team and I am excited for the experience my team is getting. I am a very intense coach and definitely crazy in moments, but after this game, our girls showed we can play at a high level. We are young and only get better from here.”
FSHA coach, Trent Tcheng: “Arcadia is known to be a very scrappy team. They don’t let anything hit the floor. That’s why I love playing them. They fight for every point and if you don’t take care of the ball on your side, they will make you pay. This match was a rollercoaster of momentum. We would go up by 4-5 points and they would just claw their way back into the set. We never felt comfortable no matter what the score was. Arcadia will do some damage this season especially with that group of coaches.”
Records: FSHA (4-1); Arcadia (0-2)
