Shorewood volleyball team tops Shorecrest, 3-0 on Monday

The Shorewood volleyball team topped Shorecrest, 3-0, Monday at Shorecrest in the second meeting of the season between the two teams.

Shorewood had beaten Shorecrest at home, 3-0, Sept. 19.

In the Monday victory, senior Molly Whipple scored 13 kills and five service aces for the Thunderbirds; sophomore Monica Postor had 11 kills and 11 digs; junior Marianne Kellogg had 27 assists; and senior Dana Brindle had 12 digs.

For the Scots, junior Diana Conwell had 10 kills and eight blocks; junior Stephanie Taylor had 16 assists; and sophomore Ivy Boad had three blocks.

Shorecrest won the junior varsity match, 3-0.

The Shorewood “C” team lost at home to King’s, 3-0.

The Thunderbird varsity had defeated Mountlake Terrace, 3-0, Tuesday, Oct. 18, Shorewood won the three games 25-15, 25-16 and 25-23, Postor scored 11 kills for the Thunderbirds; Whipple had six kills and 12 digs; Kellogg had 23 assists; and Brindle had 20 digs.

Shorewood took a 6-5 Wesco 3A record (7-6 overall) into a home match with Lynnwood Wednesday. Lynnwood had a 7-4 Wesco 3A record (8-4 overall) after winning a Tuesday home match from Mountlake Terrace, 3-1.

Shorewood now holds third place in the Wesco 3A South Division ahead of Mountlake Terrace, which has a 5-6 Wesco 3A record (6-7 overall).

Wesco 3A volleyball is divided into two divisions. The North Division consists of Everett, Glacier Peak, Marysville-Getchell and Oak Harbor. The South Division consists of Lynnwood, Meadowdale, Mountlake Terrace, Shorecrest and Shorewood. The top three teams from each division advance to the Northwest District 3A tournament along with the top two 3A teams from the Northwest Conference. Wesco seeding is determined by head to head results against the corresponding schools in each division.

If Shorewood holds third place among Wesco 3A South teams, the Thunderbirds would be the No. 6 Wesco team in the tournament because they lost to Everett, the No. 3 Wesco 3A North team, in late September. As the Wesco No. 6 team, Shorewood would open tournament play against Wesco No. 1 seeded Meadowdale at Glacier Peak.

District tournament play starts Monday, Oct. 31, and continues Nov. 3 and 5, with the top two teams qualifying for the State 3A tournament, Nov. 11-12 at Saint Martin’s University in Lacey, just north of Olympia.

The Shorecrest junior varsity finished its season with a 5-7 Wesco 3A record (6-6 overall).
The Shorewood JVs took a 4-7, 5-8 record into their season-ending match with Lynnwood.

The Shorewood “C” team took a 1-7, 3-11 record into its match with Lynnwood.
