LAGUNA FALL SPORTS :
Girls Volleyball
The Breakers competed in the 15th Annual Queens Court Tournament this past weekend , finishing 31st out of 42 teams .
With so many new faces on varsity , coach Tanik used the event to audition players in different positions and work on the best lineup to showcase their talent . This year ’ s team has only two seniors , five juniors , five sophomores and four freshmen . Overall , the program has 23 freshmen participating - half the total players in the three-level program and a real testament to the success of the Laguna Coast Volleyball Club and the Thurston sports program .
Junior varsity under coach Riley Weinert finished 9th / 31 teams at the tournament and Cliff Amsden ’ s Frosh-Soph finished 13th / 32 teams .
Varsity benefited from recent transfers Mimi Spangler ( St Margarets , So , Setter / DS ) and Blake Borgquist ( San Clemente , So , OH . MH ). Junior middle Baylie Bina ( 32 net blocks in ’ 23 ) was held out to nurse a sprained ankle . The Breakers should be a very good blocking team this season with Bina , Sadie Holmes ( 40.5 net blocks in ’ 23 ) and Borgquist on the front line .
This week , the team will hold its traditional scrimmages on Aug . 8 at Dana Hills and Aug . 9 at Aliso Niguel . The regular season opens on Friday , Aug . 16 , at the Tesoro Tournament .
