UPPER LAKE >> No. 6 seed Encinal High School of Alameda upset No. 3 Upper Lake 25-21, 20-25, 25-18, 25-20 in the quarterfinal round of the North Coast Section Division 4 volleyball playoffs Saturday in Upper Lake.
“Every game was close,” Upper Lake head coach Fawn Rave said. “We had some good swings, some good serves and defensively we did OK. We just fell back into old habits, and we couldn’t move our feet.”
Alyssa John powered the Cougars (16-6) with 15 kills, six blocks and nine digs. Aubree Sperber added 22 digs, six kills and one ace, and Jordyn Parker had seven kills, seven blocks and three aces.
Other Upper Lake leaders were Marina Quiett with four kills, three aces and 11 digs, and Kenzie Foley with 17 assists, 12 digs and one ace.
“Overall, we had a great season, and I will definitely miss our seniors, but I am looking forward to next season,” Rave said.
Upper Lake tied Fort Bragg for second place in the North Central League I North this season before sweeping Roseland University Prep in the opening round of the Division 4 playoffs on Wednesday in Upper Lake.
