(STEVE GALLUZZO For The Times)
Marymount's girls volleyball team is peaking at the right time — and that could mean trouble for opponents.
The Sailors had everything working for them in a 25-13, 25-17, 25-15 sweep of visiting Mira Costa in the Southern Section Division 1 quarterfinals on Tuesday night, showing no signs of rust after a first-round bye in the 12-team bracket.
“We couldn’t have been more prepared,” Washington-bound senior hitter Sammy Destler said. “Our energy got us to the finish line. We were on fire. That’s the best we've played all season.”
Destler entered the match two kills shy of 1,000 for her career and it didn't take long for her to reach the milestone, achieving it on a strike to the right side that gave Marymount a 12-6 lead in the first set.
