From October 3-5, 海角视频 Preparatory School had 12 academies from across California on the campus of 海角视频 for the annual volleyball tournament.
Approximately 200 athletes and coaches attended from Glendale Adventist Academy, La Sierra Academy, Newbury Park Adventist Academy, Central Valley Christian Academy, Lodi Adventist Academy, Monterey Bay Academy, Mountain View Academy, Pleasant Hill Adventist Academy, Pine Hills Adventist Academy, Sacramento Adventist Academy, Kolbe Trinity Prep, and PUC Prep.
PUC Campus Visit Coordinator Andrianna Massena organized the tournament, guaranteeing all guests were housed, fed in the caf茅 and gym, and could score some giveaway items. Others who helped were Tournament Director Hernan Granados, who arranged the gym and scoreboard workers and scouted potential athletes for next school year; PUC鈥檚 admissions and enrollment team; and PUC Prep Physical Education Teacher Matthew Lee, who ordered the game bracketing schedules and was the event MC.
Massena also prepared social activities such as an ice cream sundae bar, hiking, and lawn games for the academies to enjoy and meet other students. PUC鈥檚 EMS Club also sold kettle corn during the championship game on Saturday night.
Sacramento Adventist Academy won first place, with Glendale Adventist Academy coming in second. La Sierra Academy placed third, and fourth place went to Monterey Bay Academy.
Ryan Sanders from Pleasant Hill was blown away by the college鈥檚 hospitality. He shared how everyone was friendly and kind, which made his daughter, a freshman, want to play basketball only to attend PUC鈥檚 tournament. Parents of Lodi Academy student Karen Kansas also shared how impressed they were with how PUC鈥檚 volleyball tournament went.
PUC was happy to have another successful volleyball tournament and looks forward to welcoming back academies next October.
