In a matchup between Palisades private schools, the Calvary Christian girls volleyball team defeated defending Junior Delphic League champion St. Matthews, 25-17, 25-17, last Thursday at the St Matthew’s gym. Calvary exacted a measure of revenge against the team that eliminated them in the Delphic League semifinals last year. Eighth-graders Glenna Roberts, Cati Hance, Hilary Dahl and Catherine Price led the Cougars while seventh-grader Maya McPherson made numerous kills. Dahl passed well in her defensive specialist role. Other valuable contributions were made by Christina McHugh, Genevieve Dash and Tate Johnson. Calvary is coached by Brian and Karen Kelly. ‘St. Matthews is a well-coached team,’ Brian Kelly said. ‘We put forth a good effort and we are looking forward to our remaining games.’ All six Calvary starters play for Sunshine Volleyball Club. Along with St. Matthew’s, Calvary competes in the Junior Delphic League with Harvard-Westlake, Brentwood, St. Paul’s and Windward.
