Girls Athlete of the Week:

After opening the 2023 season 0-2, the Rancho Cucamonga girls volleyball program has won eight of their last 10 matches.

And the Cougars are currently riding a four-match win streak.

This past week, RCHS went 3-0.

On Monday and Tuesday, the Cougars swept Ayala and Bonita, respectively.

 

They closed out the week with a five-set victory over Corona Santiago to improve to 8-4.

Everyone in a Rancho Cucamonga uniform contributed to the 3-0 week, but it was junior outside hitter Carina Zaldivar that played a starring role.

The Cougars captain tallied 25 kills, 10 aces and 31 digs.

Her individual match stats look like this:

RCHS vs Ayala:
Hitting %: .240
Kills: 7
Aces: 1
Digs: 8

RCHS vs Bonita:
Hitting %: .291
Kills: 9
Aces: 4
Digs: 15

RCHS vs Santiago:
Hitting %: .458
Kills: 9
Aces: 5
Digs: 18

Up next: RCHS travels to Eastvale to take on Roosevelt (6-1) on Tuesday night at 5:45.
