"Its campus and enrollment are tiny, but Marymount High is a giant in the world of high school volleyball and this year's squad looks to have the talent to compete for a championship. The Sailors took first place out of 64 teams at the prestigious Durango Fall Classic in Las Vegas, taking down rival Sierra Canyon, 21-25, 25-15, 25-12, in the final on Sept. 20. Senior hitter and Washington commit Sammy Destler was named the tournament's most valuable player."
"Marymount did not drop a set en route to the Hawaiian Island Labor Day Classic title in Hilo in late August. Last weekend in Phoenix, the Sailors advanced to the championship match of the Platinum Division at the Nike Tournament of Champions Southwest, falling to reigning Southern Section Division 1 champion Mater Dei. The two programs could meet again in the CIF playoffs in November."
Marymount High's girls volleyball team has dominated national tournaments, winning Durango Fall Classic and Hawaiian Island Labor Day Classic and reaching the Nike Tournament of Champions Southwest final. The Sailors beat Sierra Canyon in the Durango final 21-25, 25-15, 25-12 and swept through Hilo without dropping a set. Senior hitter Sammy Destler, a Washington commit, was named Durango tournament MVP. Coach Cari Klein has compiled more than 700 wins over 28 seasons at the 350-student all-girls school. The team compares to the 2021 Sailors (35-0) and could meet Mater Dei again in the CIF playoffs.
