Girls Volleyball:
San Dimas clinched its first Hacienda League championship on Wednesday.
The Saints secured a four-set victory at South Hills to finish 8-0 in their first league outside of the VVL.
SDHS won by scores of 25-18, 25-16, 19-25 and 25-16.
San Dimas has now won seven consecutive league titles, starting in 2017.
And for the record, they did not have a 2020 COVID season.
Incredibly, the Saints have won 45 consecutive league matches.
Their last league setback dates back to September 18th of 2019, when SDHS fell to Covina in four games.
But back to Wednesday.
Priscilla Romero led the charge with 22 kills and 16 assists.
Bobbie Torres also made a significant impact, contributing 17 kills.
On the defensive side, Natali Saldana was a rock for San Dimas.
She notched 16 digs and three aces to help secure the win.
Up next: The Saints will get their first-round playoff opponent on Saturday morning at 10.
