Tartan Boys Volleyball Downs Sage Hill in Pacific Coast League Action
St. Margaret's won 3-2 last night.
St. Margaret's boys volleyball picked up a league win Tuesday, defeating Sage Hill 3-2. With the win, the Tartans improve to 3-1 in league competition.
The Tartans had to work hard to slip past the defending CIF Div. V champion Sage Hill School and their 6-foot-10 outside hitter. After splitting the first four games (24-26, 25-14, 25-13, 20-25) and digging a big hole (0-6) in the fifth, St. Margaret's found another gear and battled back for a 15-13 set and match win.
Luke Balint led all hitters with 24 kills on 45 swings (.378), but there was outstanding balance and production all around. Miles Eaton led the middle with 11 kills on 18 attempts (no errors, .611), with Beckett Harvey adding 10 kills and Aidan McMahon getting offensive in the setter position with 5 kills on 9 attempts. Ry Hill and Caden Isola added 7 and 5 kills, respectively.
"Collectively, the team had 38% of the attack and 38% of the kills from the middle, which has been a focus for us this week," said head coach Bob Yoder. "Our ability to lock in and side out in the final set was the difference in the match."
The Tartans will next face Trabuco Hills in a non-league matchup on March 13.
