2012 All Conference Team

American Martyrs claimed their sixth consecutive CYO Girls Volleyball title with a victory over St. Paul the Apostle at St. Mary's Academy. The game was hotly contested by both teams who had met earlier in the season during tournament play. St. Paul Apostle, the #2 seed and champion of the WAC Conference, came in confident and optimistic, eager to challenge the Mustangs, #1 seed and Southbay Champs. The quality of play from both teams was exceptional and the girls battled throughout. In the end American Martyrs proved to have more firepower and took the match in straight sets to win the championship. The energy and excitement from the fans and players was high as the teams battled hard. A great show of competition and sportsmanship was displayed.

The third place game pitted #3 St. Lawrence Martyr (Redondo Beach) versus #4 Assumption BVM (Pasadena). This was a great match all the way to the third set. SLM took the first game while Assumption BVM won the second. The third a deciding set was very exciting with the teams exchanging the lead several times. Assumption BVM made a strong push in the end and held off SLM for the win, with a 16-14 score. Here again these teams displayed impressive play as all the girls possessed great skills.

Congratulations to all the teams and coaches for advancing to the final four and competing throughout the playoffs.
