\"\"Last year, Tiare Tuitama’s girls volleyball program at La Salle had a lot of hype among area fans and the media (rankings).<\/p>\n

The Lancers went out in the second round of the CIF playoffs to the surprise and disappointment of many, including Tuitama.<\/p>\n

The 2017 season has started and without nearly as much fanfare, but this program has now won all four of its matches via sweep.<\/p>\n

And that included a ranked Sierra Canyon team that previously swept Mayfield, Viewpoint and Campbell Hall before traveling to Pasadena to take on the Lancers.<\/p>\n

Claire Forrest led the La Salle offense with 9 kills, 2 aces and a block.<\/p>\n

La Salle earned a 25-20, 25-23 and 25-22 sweep of a tough Trailblazers team.<\/p>\n

\"\"Sofia Sanchez added 5 kills and 3 blocks.<\/p>\n

Tori Ashkinos chipped in with 16 assists and 11 digs.<\/p>\n

Vanessa Ramirez finished with 12 digs and an ace.<\/p>\n

La Salle won’t have too much time to celebrate, because they’ll host rival Flintridge Sacred Heart tonight (Friday) at 6:30.<\/p>\n

Quotable:<\/strong><\/p>\n

La Salle coach Tiare Tuitama:<\/strong> “I am very proud of the team and how we competed tonight. Our practices leading up to this game were tough and strategic. Sierra Canyon is a very good school, and has some amazing athletes. Our goal is to continue to improve each week. We still have a lot of room to grow as a team. We are looking forward to playing Flintridge Sacred Heart tomorrow.”<\/p>\n

La Salle senior Sofia Sanchez:<\/strong> “Our hard work and practice truly paid off today against a great team. Go Lancers!”<\/p>\n
