Center Moriches Wins | Section XI - Suffolk County Athletics | Facebook

The Center Moriches girls volleyball team has won the Suffolk County Class B championship.

The #1 seeded team was looking for back-to-back championships but this time needed a comeback to get the title. The day was as exciting as it could have been against South Hampton. Each team pushed each other to tie after tie and it all came down to the crucial last minute.

Center Moriches proved their championship heart in the last set as they were down 15-12 but roared back to win and celebrate the title.

The final numbers show how close it was with a line of 25-18, 18-25, 23-25, 25-22, 25-7.

Erin Baldock led the way with 27 kills. Karly Coonan added 10 kills and Roselyn Barturen had 14 assists.

Center Moriches will now face the Nassau Class B champion in the Long Island Class B championship.
