The Valencia High boys’ volleyball team rallied from an 11-2 deficit in the final game for a grueling 10-15, 15-12, 13-15, 16-14, 15-13 victory over Highland in a Southern Section Division I second-round playoff match at Highland that took about 2 hours, 40 minutes to play.
“We’ve been in that situation before and I thought our guys just stepped it up when they had to,” Coach Kevin Kornegay said.
In the final game, the Vikings (28-4) rallied behind seniors Corey Feldt and Chris Haigh, although it was junior Chris Savage whose kill finished off the Bulldogs (25-7).
Haigh finished with 25 kills, Feldt had 20 kills and 11 digs, and Savage had 11 kills and nine blocks. Tony Ker had 13 digs, 12 kills and 10 blocks.
Highland’s Trent Sorensen had 34 kills and 14 digs.
