Game Details - Boys Volleyball

No. 1 Maple Mountain looked like the top seed throughout day one of the state tournament as it dominated its competition 6-0. No. 9 Salem Hills couldn’t keep up in its semifinal with the Golden Eagles and Maple Mountain rolled to a 25-16, 29-27, 25-16 win. The Golden Eagles dominated in nearly every set in day one, but it faltered a bit in the second set with Salem Hills. Luckily for Maple Mountain, it has 2024 Mr. Volleyball on its roster with Trey Thornton. Thornton led the Golden Eagles with 23 kills. “He helps calm the group, especially with top player in the nation,” said Maple Mountain head coach Napoleon Galang. “It's nice to have a player to go to when we need a side out or to get a pass or to get a dig because he can do all of that. He's our leader and we're riding him to another championship.” Maple Mountain Also got support with Matt Borges’ seven kills and Kimbal Olsen’s six kills.
