Boys’ volleyball hopes to repeat stellar season

Coach: Jason Cardoso

Last year record (results in league/CCS): 25-12

2014-2015 season recap: After a successful season, the boys were crowned the 2015 CCS Champions in Division II for the first time in the school’s history, beating No. 1-seeded Aptos. The team went on to play in the NorCal Tournament, where they lost a match against Ponderosa 15-13 in the last set.

Star players: seniors Chester Leung, Spencer Yen and Alex Li, junior Joel Schneidmiller

Key additions: Senior Aakash Thumaty and junior Vincent Man

Key losses to graduation: Michael Cole, Stephen Peng, James Freeman and Alex Holz

League: De Anza

Prognosis: Because of its stellar performance last year, the team has moved up into the De Anza League, where competition will be tougher. “Though the playing field seems pretty even, I think we can compete to be in the upper echelon of teams even though we're playing in a better league,” senior setter Chester Leung said. “The goal is to make CCS and hopefully we can have a repeat of last year.”
