Arcadia Defeats Crescenta Valley To Kick Off Pacific League Action
By Aaron Valdez
The Arcadia girls volleyball team is off and running in Pacific League play as it erased a 1-0 set deficit in its 3-1 win over the Crescenta Valley Falcons on Tuesday.
As dominant as the Apaches have been half way through the season, they are not perfect and suffered their first loss at the hands of Ontario Christian at last week’s Ayala Tournament. Despite the small hiccup, Arcadia is right back on its feet and has started another win streak with this latest win over Crescenta Valley.
The visiting Falcons took it to Arcadia in the early goings of the match. It seemed Arcadia had no answers for Crescenta Valley’s high-flying offense as it dropped the first set 25-15.
However, the Apaches bounced back in no time, taking the second set 25-9 and the third set 25-17. The fourth set featured a much tighter battle but the Apaches ultimately came out on top with a 26-24 win.
Arcadia will continue its four-game home stand as it squares off with Pasadena on Thursday in hopes of staying atop the Pacific League standings.
