VOLLEYBALL | Wolves finish their season strong but fall short in the first round of the CIF playoffs.

Their first challenge of the playoffs against the Narbonne Gauchos ended in a 3-1 defeat.

Too many balls to to net could mean a quick end to the playoff run.

The rocky season started with few hopes of a playoff berth. No coach, not enough cleared players. Through hard work and a little bit of luck, the Wolves were able to force a continuation of their season.

The 4-7 ranked team is considered the 17th best team in the 2021 CIF LA city section girls volleyball championships and were matched against the 16th, Narbonne Gauchos.

On Tuesday, the team had to play an away game against Narbonne in Harbor City, CA.

A victory would mean a game against SOCES, a team that the Wolves have never played against.

The formidable SOCES Knights are the top ranked team in the tournament with a season record of 14-7.
