Last year, Palos Verdes High School’s fall sports season was one to remember with girls tennis, girls volleyball, and boys football claiming three CIF titles. How will this year top last year’s season?
Dabe Nwude, a senior on Varsity football, believes that this season “we are more united, more like brothers and have better team chemistry.” Nwude believes this year will be stronger and better than the previous ones. This season alone, Nwude has helped defend our team with nine tackles and eight assists as of October 8.
Morley Boyd, another senior on PVHS varsity football, believes “If we take it one play at a time and we’ll be good no matter what happens.” Boyd has been a key role on the team since sophomore year this year alone he has had countless touchdowns. Just a couple games ago he helped beat Banning 52-0. At the game, Boyd had one touchdown and four receptions with his longest reception being 62 yards.
The Sea Kings have not only seen success on the field, but also on the volleyball courts. Last year the team finished with an overal record of 27-9.
Paige Tydlaska, a junior on varsity girls volleyball, said “I think the team is different this year but we have a lot of potential, and new additions that will hopefully make this season really successful.”
Tydlaska also mentioned the fact that there is a new coaching staff and they are looking forward to the rest of another great season.
Additionally, girls tennis is off to an impressive start.
Bella Sachar, a senior on Varsity tennis believes “We can win again because of our strong players and the time each girl has put in.” Sachar said the team knows what to do to win again.
Last year, the Sea Kings were Southern Section CIF division and won the CIF state championship with a record of (27-0).
Whether it’s on the football field, the volleyball court, or the tennis court, Sea King teams have demonstrated the ability to succeed. Our Sea Kings are confident that we will carry last year’s success into this upcoming season.
One thing is clear, PVHS sports teams are working just as hard and ready to tackle this upcoming season.
