Congratulations to Robyn Levinson, Tangi Gaddis, Kendall Williams, and Elena Ramos for earning spots on the OAL All-City volleyball team. Levinson, a senior setter, and Gaddis, a senior outside hitter, both were named to the first team, while Williams, a junior outside hitter, and Ramos, a junior setter, were named to the second team. The Bulldogs finished the season as runners-up to the OAL title.
The Oakland Tech Varsity Volleyball concluded its most successful season in years Thursday, defeating the Castlemont Knights in 3 straight games, 25-21, 25-14, 25-12.
The Bulldogs end the season with an 8-2 mark and 2nd place in the OAL, having recorded victories over both OAL champion Skyline and Fremont, and sweeping the season series with O-High, McClymonds and Castlemont.
The Bulldog JV team was also victorious, defeating Castlemont 2-0.
This was the final Bulldog Volleyball match for a wonderful group of seniors, who can take pride in their contribution to this amazing season:
2009 Bulldog Volleyball Seniors
The Oakland Tech varsity volleyball team defeated McClymonds, 3-0 (25-7, 25-9, 26-24) on Tuesday, sweeping the season series from the Warriors.
The Oakland Tech varsity volleyball team dropped their 2nd consecutive 5-game match, and 2nd match of the season, falling to the Fremont Tigers at Fremont on Thursday. The Bulldogs won the first two games of the match, 25-17 and 25-18, before Fremont got their act together to take games 3 and 4, 25-18 and 25-20.
Game 5 was a see-saw battle all the way, with no team gaining more than a 2-point advantage throughout, until Fremont pulled away at the end for the 15-12 victory.
With first place at stake, the previously undefeated Oakland Tech volleyball team dropped its first match of the season to Skyline, 3-2 (26-24, 24-26, 25-16, 22-25, 12-15), in front of a raucous crowd at the Dog Pound. The loss creates a tie at the top of the OAL, as Tech and Skyline have split their two matches. If both teams win the rest of their matches and finish the season with one loss, then the teams would probably play a playoff match to determine the OAL champ.
