With home court advantage, a determined Northwood team took Springbrook to its limits with pride. "They had their moments that took our momentum away and kept them in the game," said the Blue Devils first year coach. "But, thanks to our seasoned players like Nevan Vando, Alex Vanegas-Lynn and Marcelo Wheeler, we eventually got our rhythm back," The win is the 6th for Springbrook who is tied with Paint Branch as leaders in the East Division.

It was a good contest between the two sides, but Springbrook grabbed control early and saw out the victory in each set. A ton of talent on both squads!

Tough loss for the Blue Devils in 5 sets against a reputable and established volleyball program at Blair HS. Springbrook took the 1st set 25-19 and the 3rd set 25-21, while Blair took the 2nd set 25-23, 4th set 25-21. and the 5th set 15-13. Springbrook displayed solid hitting by Matti Wakiwaya, Alex Vanegas-Lynn and Isiah Powell. Isiah's brother, Byrce, also stood out as an oppo and blocker. Setter Marcelo Wheeler mixed the sets evenly amongst Springbrook hitters. Nevan Vando and Dustin Nguyen were also instrumental io defense. The Springbrook team showed they had the talent with great offense and defensive systems to be reckoned with in 2024.

Sherwood Vs Blair is a team rival!! Blair beat sherwood with a swept of 3-0 during the playoffs which had sherwood going home and Blair Advancing. Both teams are very good this year and I think this will be an exciting game
