Avenging last season’s heartbreaking loss to St. Mary’s in the city volleyball tournament, Lynn Classical found revenge and swept the Spartans (25-19, 26-24, 25-8) Friday evening to make it three city titles in four years.
The second set showed what the Lady Rams were made of, as the Spartans raced to an 18-9 lead.
“We never panicked and chipped away at the lead with contributions from everyone on the floor,” said Classical coach Chris LeBlanc. “On championship point (in the third set), the Rams looked to their captain, Amanda Hughes, who delivered a clean kill into the middle of the court.”
Leading the way for Classical were Caitlin Kelley (8 aces, 5 digs), Tournament MVP Emma Chevalier (20 assists, 3 kills, 9 digs, 2 aces), and Hughes (10 kills, 6 digs, 2 aces).
