Varsity Volleyball

Here is a pic of part of the Santa Cruz Chritian Learning Centers Varsity Volleyball team. The team consist of 9-12th graders. We had a very good season finishing the regular season 4-2 losing only to Co-operative School (twice). Our league consist of Co-operative School Jaguars, International School Griffins, Christian Learning Center Eagles, and Cambridge College Knights.

{Team members shown in the pic--front (starting from the left) Paul Estes (12), Mark Salinas (12), Nick Smith (10), Jesse Mann (10), back Jon Mann (12), Danny Canaviri (12), Jesse Hallock (11), and Andre Larson (10)} Missing from Pic Taylon Schreoder (9), Jihun Chun (10), Juan Carlos Yao (10), Richard Ling (11), Josh Mojica (12)

This last weekend started a tounament. It was Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. It was a round robin tournament playing every school with the teams with the best record playing for the championship on Sautrday. One caveat about this tournament-it was both soccer and volleyball at the same time so our team played 2 soccer matches and 1 volleyball game on Thursday, 2 volleyball and 1 soccer on Friday, then the championship on Saturday for both volleyball and soccer. These were some long days with the last contest starting at 8:3o p.m. both nights. Now not all of our volleyball players were involved with soccer but 6 did play soccer.

Well we lost our first two matched and did not play very well. Then in the third match we finally got our act together and won. So we were in the consolation game on Saturday morining which we won to finish the tournament 2-2 with a 3rd place finish.

Below is a pic of three of the volleyball and soccer players that receive a MVP award for their outstanding play. The three are from left to right are Mark Estes, Danny Canaviri, and Jesse Hallock.
I am very proud of the SCCLC Varsity Volleyball team. They did a great job of representing themselves and the Learning Center.
