Boys Indoor had a very strong season and established themselves as the best team in the league behind perennial powerhouses St. Augustine and La Jolla (even taking a five-set match from La Jolla at their place).

UC hosted the first-round playoff game against Mission Vista, whom they swept earlier in the year for the Sweetwater Silver Division Championship. The sweep went in the other direction this time, ending a special season.

St. Augustine was a rude guest, failing to roll over and let us enjoy our Senior Night with a win.

The four games were all close, with us taking the second.  Here's that set..

Preseason Writeup:

For 2023, we've lost our two 2022 seniors and one of our three juniors.  Sophomores and Freshman grew into bigger roles (and about six inches in height!).  One surprise addition has been Lincoln, who has been literally HUGE at Middle.

For a full writeup of our 2022 thrilling short-handed playoff win, see Playoffs at Liberty Charter - 220502

In addition to senior Shahab (The Power and the Passion), a 2nd-Team All-League Middle, we will field returning senior Dash (who tested positive for The Rona hours before the 2022 playoffs).  He is a 1st-Team All-League Outside Hitter, so he and Shahab will bring proven firepower.

We return experienced and very talented junior setter Zion.  He is probably our best blocker as well (with his 37" vertical).  Zion is the key to making it all happen. Pray for his continued health!

Jeremy, another junior, stepped up and hit very big at the end of the year.  He'll be a big hit in 2023!

Sophomore Trinton, last year's libero, played big D all year.  Hitter in 2023.  We'll have to update our "He's a Freshman" post-ace chant.

Justin and Petar - we tend to include them together because they have two years of excellent sand partnership and because they are the two most athletically gifted hustlers on the team - will continue to grow their roles.  Both were instrumental in our playoff success.  

We are ready to build on that experience!
