The girl’s varsity volleyball are El Camino Real league champions with an overall record of 25-7 and a league record of 13-0. according to MaxPreps. The team had an impressive 18-game winning streak that was ended by the Palo Alto Vikings on Oct. 12, according to MaxPreps.

“A memorable moment for us was when we won the Los Altos Invitations Tournament, and we beat Los Altos in a championship match,” co-captain Varadha Biju said.

After winning plus celebrating Hoco in the following few hours, bringing home a medal was an unforgettable day for them, Biju added.

“Milpitas High School has never, ever won that tournament, and they’ve never, ever beaten Los Altos High School,” Canez said. “So we made history twice in one day.”

Their goal this season is to get the league title and go to CCS since they haven’t had a title since 2002, according to Canez.

“I think that gave them the drive and motivation to want to win yesterday against Saratoga,” said Canez.

Wilcox is a rival school that puts up tough competition with fast past matches, said Biju. With a score of 3-0, Milpitas won against Wilcox on Oct.17, said MaxPreps.

“My most memorable moment was our win against Saratoga,” Dang said.

“I think that match was a very tough match and the fact that we were able to push through it was very memorable for me,” Dang said.

On the court, being able to communicate with the team and help guide them is one of my favorite things about being captain, said co-captain Kylie Dang.

With an 11-0 league record score, the team is aiming for a league title and a chance to compete in CCS.
