“Malia and Jayden played a tough scrappy Santa Ynez team that took them to three games, but both ladies elevated their game in set 3 and came away with a win,” said DP coach Mike Fitzgerald.
“DP is a tough, well-coached squad,” Santa Ynez coach Melissa Rogers said. “Unfortunately, we struggled with consistency. We needed to control the ball better and limit our errors. We have work to do with our new line-up, however the girls are making good progress.”
