Otto Lacayo and his club team from the San Gabriel Elite Volleyball Club felt a mile high this weekend.<\/p>\n

Lacayo, the Westridge volleyball coach, and the Pasadena Sports Now Coach of the Year, led a roster of talented girls from the San Gabriel Valley to Denver this past weekend.<\/p>\n

The (16-and-under) team, called ’16 Roshambo,’ features Westridge’s Krystal Raymundo, La Salle’s Sofia Sanchez and Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy’s Megan Lund and\u00a0Colleen Clapp.<\/p>\n

SG Elite went 10-0 and qualified for the Junior Olympics in the Open Division, which takes place in Minneapolis in June.<\/p>\n

They trailed Kansas City, 11-6, in the third and deciding set, but they rallied and earned the tournament title, 15-12.<\/p>\n

They did all this, despite competition from a 50-plus team field that represented programs throughout the United States.<\/p>\n

Simone Dominique led the way with a team-best 86 kills, and Sofia Sanchez added 73 kills and a team-high 19 aces.<\/p>\n

Krystal Raymundo, who played for the Prep League champs at Westridge had a team-high 74 digs, and Megan Lund, cousin\u00a0of FSHA four-time All-American Kayla Lund, added 19 digs.<\/p>\n

SG Elite will be ranked nationally in the Top-5 when the rankings come out shortly, and they will be back in action this weekend in San Diego.<\/p>\n

They will compete in Southern California League play<\/p>\n

“They played at the highest level and I couldn’t be more proud of them,” Lacayo said. “You’re playing against kids who are going to do great things in college. The kids on our side responded well to adversity.”<\/p>\n

** Also in Colorado was the ’17 Elite’ from the same club, and coached by Westridge assistant Jezreel Nueve.<\/p>\n

They earned the ‘Silver’ after going 9-1 and qualified for the Junior National Championships.<\/p>\n

Sophia Anderson (La Salle), Maddie Pernecky and Emily Smith both represent Flintridge Sacred Heart and Poly’s Halston Harper all play for the 17 Elite.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
