In its final match of the 2015 season, the Long Beach City College women's volleyball team went out on a winning note by cruising to a sweep of Los Angeles Harbor College on Wednesday night at LBCC. The Vikings won the South Coast Conference match by scores of 25-10, 25-11, and 25-14 to end the year with a 7-17 overall record and 5-9 mark in SCC play.
Long Beach set the tone early, jumping out to a 12-2 lead in the opening set. The Vikings hit an impressive .684 in the first before rolling to the 15-point win.
Harbor actually led 4-1 in the second set before the Vikings won 12 of the next 13 points to take a commanding 13-5 advantage. And in the third, Long Beach was up 10-2 and led late 20-6 before the Seahawks put together a rally. But sophomore Helen Marangos' (Santa Fe HS) ace on match point closed out the third-set win and season-ending sweep.
LBCC also honored its six sophomores playing in their final match in a Viking uniform. Marangos was one of three Vikings to total a match-high seven kills on the night. She added two blocks and an ace. Sophomore Selesitina Felise (Sacramento, CA) totaled 12 assists, seven digs, three aces, and three blocks in her final match while sophomore Lauren Christensen (Valley Christian HS)posted six kills, six digs, and an ace.
Freshmen Gloria Watson (Immaculate Heart HS) and Kassidy Harrington (Western HS) also had seven kills for the Vikings.
