On Monday, EG’s Girls Volleyball team fell to South Kingstown in straight (if close) sets at home,  25-22, 25-19 and 25-19. EG moved up to Division 1 last year but this year’s team has only three seniors. The team is comprised mostly of sophomores and juniors, with one freshman. 

South Kingstown, meanwhile, had seven seniors and six juniors, as well as a bit more height on their side. Avenger standouts Monday, according to Coach Justin Amaral, were Melis Kocak,  Grace Clark and Jillian Tracey.

Amaral said the team is working hard and he anticipates they will improve every game.
