Coronado High's girls' volleyball team beat Canyon Hills 3-1 on Friday, Oct. 16, pushing the Islanders' winning streak to four matches heading into their regular-season finale.
The victory came on senior night at Coronado, according to the Coronado Eagle & Journal. The Islanders honored seniors AJ Bernard, Maya Wilson, Andrea Reyes, Chloe Fledderjohn and Megan Hewett before the match.
Coronado dropped the first set 25-9 but swept the final three to close out the win.
The result extended a rebound stretch for head coach Adeile Ahmu's squad after Cathedral Catholic handed the Islanders a 3-0 loss on Tuesday, Oct. 6. That defeat was Coronado's first since Sept. 12, according to MaxPreps.
Senior captain Bernard, a transfer student from Washington, leads the Islanders in total blocks. MaxPreps lists her at 124 on the season. Through 35 matches at the time of the Canyon Hills game, the Eagle & Journal reported she had 113 blocks, 1.2 blocks per set and 90 kills.
Junior outside hitter Ashlynn Proctor paces Coronado in several categories, according to MaxPreps team stats: 5.4 kills per set, a .430 hitting percentage, 2.5 digs per set and 76 serving aces.
The Islanders followed the Canyon Hills win with a 3-0 sweep of Scripps Ranch on Tuesday, Oct. 20. MaxPreps listed Coronado at 33-3 overall and 6-1 in Western League play as of Thursday, Oct. 22. The Eagle & Journal reported a 32-5 record after the Canyon Hills match; the difference likely reflects how tournament results are counted.
Coronado is ranked No. 4 in the CIF San Diego Section Division I standings.
The Islanders' final regular-season match is Thursday, Oct. 22, at Cathedral Catholic, with a chance to clinch the Western League title.
