From STAFF REPORTS
The bus ride home from Santa Barbara is going to be an enjoyable one for the FSHA volleyball program.
FSHA went out to battle San Marcos and came home with their tickets punched to the second round of the CIF-SS Division 2 playoffs.
The Tologs earned the 25-14, 26-24 and 25-21 victory at San Marcos.
Peyton DeJardin led the way offensively with 15 kills.
Dani Thomas-Nathan added 11 kills.
Ellie Lund finished with 37 assists for the Tologs.
FSHA will travel to San Clemente on Saturday at 6.
The Tritons (27-7) had a first-round bye and went 8-0 in Sea View League action.
Quotable:
FSHA coach Trent Tcheng: “We were able to control our nerves pretty well tonight. San Marcos had a great turnout among their student body and were loud. They made this feel like a playoff game and created a great atmosphere. It was a great way to open the playoffs and we enjoy the underdog role. We opened up our offense and knew our middles needed to be active and they did a great job when they had opportunities.”
FSHA freshman Peyton DeJardin: “I think that since we play tougher competition we were ready. We knew this could be our last match, and we didn’t waver throughout match. I feel like we play better when there is a crowd and feed off of it. We stayed steady throughout the match and kept a strong mind set. Everyone is on the same page, and had to, because we play such a tough schedule. We need to improve our communication and be less hesitant on defense.”
