Congratulations! Maloney Girls Volleyball! The Spartans had an incredible championship weekend, winning both of their matches to capture the CCC Tournament Championship!
On Saturday afternoon, Maloney was back on the court at the UConn Volleyball Center for the CCC Championship, where they faced rival Southington. After dropping a close first set, the Spartans bounced back and won three straight sets to take the match 3-1!
The final scores were 24-26, 25-15, 25-23, and 25-19. Greta Koscuk once again led the attack with an outstanding 27 kills and 25 digs! That's an incredible all-around performance in a championship match!
Tessa Holmes finished with 44 assists, three aces, and 11 digs. Jenna Feitel added 11 kills, while Maryam Machmech contributed five kills and five blocks. Gabriella Alston chipped in six kills and three blocks, and Bianca Arroyo had a huge defensive game with 22 digs!
The Spartans also received some outstanding contributions from their middle hitter, Kamilla Armstrong, who played extremely well throughout the weekend. Alina Colon also came through with some clutch serving and important defensive plays when the team needed them most.
With the victory, Maloney captured its first CCC Tournament Championship in more than 20 years! It's a tremendous accomplishment for this team and a great moment for the Maloney volleyball program.
But the season isn't over yet! The Spartans now turn their attention to the CIAC Class LL State Tournament. Maloney enters as the number two seed and receives a first-round bye.
Their next match will be Thursday in the second round, where they'll face the winner of Simsbury and Newtown. The Spartans are currently 22-2 and looking to carry their championship momentum into the state tournament!
