The 9th Graders ended their season on April 5th on the road against an experienced Governor Livingston squad. The 7-0 Hilltoppers were looking for the perfect season and they achieved it in style in a close hard fought victory over the Crusaders, 25-23, 25-22, the last game coming back from 21-17 down to go on an 8-1 run to cap off the perfect season.
Congrats to the Lady Hilltoppers and Coach Gutierrez who took a group of fairly inexperienced young athletes and implemented a system that maximized the athletes´ currrent skills and technical abilities against teams that at times had much more playing experience and a better skill set than our young volleyball players. What an amazingly surprising season and an incredible performance by the squad!!
Congrats all!!!
The JV bounced back rather nicely after their classic 3 game battle against Scotch Plains-Fanwood on the road against a motivated and hungry Crudsader squad this past Saturday. The Hilltoppers earned their 8th win of the season with a sound 25-12, 25-19 victory that ended an incredibly successful and impactful season that saw this experienced group get the highest seed ever in the county tournament and reach the semis of said tournament for only the third time ever, the first time hosting a semi. The future looks bright as these young women will bring the 3 ingredients key to any team´s success in volleyball: tough serving, solid passing and team chemistry.
