CdM rallies past Timberwolves
- Share via
The Corona del Mar High girls volleyball team defeated Northwood,
18-25, 25-17, 25-14, 25-14, in a Pacific Coast League match Thursday
at CdM.
Seniors Jordan Smith and Lindsey Ensign led the Sea Kings with 13
kills each, while senior Traci Lawson added 19 assists and 18 digs.
Sophomore Kelly Christian had 14 assists and 12 digs.
Corona del Mar (16-4, 4-0 in league) normally runs a fast-paced
offense, but fell victim to Northwood’s (14-5, 1-3) slow tempo in the
first game.
But the Sea Kings rallied and upped the tempo in the final three
games to run away with the match.

UCI falls in overtime
* SOCCER: A physical men’s soccer game from which a player on each
team was ejected for fighting, ended in Cal Poly San Luis Obispo’s
2-1 overtime victory over Big West Conference visitor UC Irvine
Friday.
Matthew Robinson scored the game-winner 75 seconds after UCI’s
Daniel Marshall and Cal Poly’s Justin Woodward were issued red cards
for fighting midway through the first overtime period.
Robinson took a short pass from Eibad Ghori and booted a 12-yard
shot into the right corner of the net in the ninth minute of
overtime, giving the Mustangs (4-3-3, 1-2-0 in conference) their
first win in five home matches.
UCI, which pulled even in the 59th minute when Damon Manak scored
off a rebound, fell to 4-8-0, 0-3-0.
The game included 31 fouls, 17 of which were called on Cal Poly.
Goalkeeper Cameron Rossi had seven saves for UCI, which was
outshot, 21-15.
It was the third straight loss for the Anteaters, who will try to
turn it around Saturday at 7 p.m., when they play host to Cal State
Fullerton.
